diamond knives and tungsten carbide.

Hi Philip,

Diatome is the brand we use.  Lately they have been having
resharpening issues.  We have had to send several back after
resharpening because the knives left scratch marks on the thin
sections.  That said, they are friendly and helpful and have never
complained about us returning one for additional resharpening.

There are other brands on the market, I have not used them in a while
so I cannot comment about those vendors.

If you have anyother questions, feel free to ask.

Paula  :-)

Have a look at Delaware Diamond Knives (DDK). Their website I believe is 
www.ddk.com. I'm sure they can help you or at a minimum point you in the right 
direction.

Philip,

We also use Dorn and Hart Microedge.  As far as I know they only do
Tungsten Carbide and steel knives but if that is what your looking for they
are the best priced, quality, and easiest to work with.
