Sharpo Diamond Sharpening Set
This kit provides a stainless steel and rubber base that supports the 3" X 9" plate glass and sharpening film. Each glass plate will accommodate 2 grades of film (1 on each side).
This simple but extremely effective sharpening set outperforms other sharpening systems. This is because our precision durable sharpening film abrasives sharpens faster and cleaner.
This set includes 2 glass plates will accommodate 4 films (1 grade on each side).
How to use:
To use, simply peel off the paper liner from the sharpening film, and apply the film to the glass plate. Be careful to avoid trapping air bubbles during this process. Spray some water or use a few drops of vegetable oil on the surface on the film as lubrication for the sharpening process. This will prevent swarf buildup and allow your films to be used longer!
Begin with the lower grit size (coarse to fine, depending on how dull the knives are). Use an approximate 20 degree sharpening angle. Use push or pull strokes with the direction of the non-cutting top edge leading. Step down the sequence of grits until desired sharpness is achieved. -

Let customers speak for us
from 46 reviewsExcellent product and what a value. I have purchased so much from this company as the service and prices are terrific.
Very happy the the product, price, and service.
I purchased the 1200 and 16000 diamond lapping films with 1 piece of glass, to sharpen a grafting knife.
The 1200 cuts very fast, and the 16000 removed the burr and polished the edge after 5 passes. Total sharpening time was barely 1 minute. The results were scary sharp. I am pleased with this purchase.
I do suggest Sharpo allow customers to mix and match film gritt sizes. MOQ of 3 sheets per gritt is a policy that caused me to order less. I would have bought more gritts and glass but I dont need or want 3 sheets of each gritt. Also I did have some trouble applying the lapping films to the glass to avoid bubbles and would have liked some included instructions. A simple sticker, stamp, or printing on the back of the films would have been enough to avoid first time pitfalls.
Thank you
I'm a knife making hobbiest. Been sharpening things my whole life. I've tried many different systems -- eventually I have developed my own with products from several different companies. Sharpo has proven to be a nice system . The grits on paper glued on the glass plate is a great idea. I have made it part of my regimen for sharpening my knives, but I can see that it would easily be used on any surface to provide the best edge I have ever been able to sharpen a knife on. I will continue to use this system.

Works like a charm. I’m getting a mirror like finish on my carbide gravers
I am a woodworking teacher and recently provided these lapping films to my students for use in a hand tool sharpening class, and they did not disappoint. These films did an excellent job at creating flat, polished backs and sharp edges to all of the chisels and planes we ran over them. They also held up very well to several hours of continuous use. Super easy to apply to glass plates and left no residue after removing. I haven't used them long enough to see how long they will hold up, but based on what I've seen so far I imagine they will last quite a while. Certainly an excellent, low cost option for tool sharpening.
These films cut beautifully, and very fast. I tried them in front of a tool sharpening class alongside the aluminum oxide films, and while both were effective, the diamond films were significantly faster. Seemed to obtain a polished, sharp cutting edge on my chisels and planes in just a couple passes. They were also very easy to remove from the glass substrate with no residue left behind. They seemed to hold up very well to 2 days of continual use in class. I plan to keep them around for a while to get a better idea of how long they last, but from my initial experience, I imagine they will be with me for a very long time. I'd say they are well worth having in my sharpening kit.
First off, I ordered the wrong thing. I promptly emailed the support address and claimed I did not get a grit I was expecting. Then I sent another email telling them it as my mistake and I ordered the right thing. Then I got a phone call from this guy who was super polite and after I explained that there was nothing wrong he gave me some pointers on using the product. I will shop excellent customer service all day long.
As for the product, I have four new wind river planes and I have hours trying to lap them with my Dimond steel plates. No luck. They are so badly out of whack I can't get them to smooth out at all. The diamond films even though I di not get the course one I wanted still cut the Wind river irons in to shape quickly. I did deviate a slight bit and lubricated with Crud cutter. The glass plates ate substantial and the edges are well polished. (I got a float glass plate a few years ago and you could cut yourself on the edge by looking at it wrong.) The grits cut much faster than Aluminum oxide of silica carbide sand paper. I am thrilled with this.
Thought there was a quality control issue as several felt perfectly smooth. However a good amount of dark swirl quickly appeared.
Kudos to Sharpo for their great customer service. I recently ordered the Scary Sharp Kit Refill pack and when it arrived it was missing two of the films. I contacted customer service and they sent the missing films that afternoon and they arrived the next business day. The films work great and are a fantastic value.
When it comes to precision abrasives, finding a company that not only delivers top-tier products but also backs them with outstanding customer service is rare. Sharpo is one of those rare gems.
From my very first order with them, I was struck by their professionalism and willingness to go the extra mile. Whether it was answering technical questions, helping me choose the right grit, or ensuring my order arrived on time, their customer support team acted like they really valued my business even though it was not a high value customer. How a company handles the small orders is a very good indication on how they handle all order.
Having good customer service is great but if the product is no good, well you wouldn't come back. Simply put, it’s the best I’ve ever used. The consistency of the film is flawless, the durability is unmatched, and the cutting power is leagues ahead of the competition.
I’ve tried many brands over the years, but nothing quite matches the performance and longevity of Sharpo’s products. When you combine that with customer service that actually cares, it’s easy to see why they’ve earned a loyal following. If you need diamond lapping film that delivers precision and quality with a company that truly cares, look no further.
Love the paper, game changer for me!
These films are the best out there for sharpening chisels and plane blades! They stick is so strong and they hold up incredibly well! Just a little water and your blades will be so sharp!
The micro polishing films have performed surprisingly well. I found the media cuts fast and cleanly. The films were more aggressive than expected, a great find. The glass is of course flat so no worries about stone wear.
I highly recommend this setup.
