The "stone" is actually a block of aluminum billet with one surface having the diamond surface applied. What? you say Al is a light metal? Sure. Ever picked up a 4" x 10" by 3/8" piece? Not so light!If you have a flat surface available (such as a scrap piece of cut & polished marble (1/2" thick), you really don't need a holder. Just use some non-slip material between the DMT and the surface. Even a wet paper towel will work. The DMT comes with 4 non-slip rubber feet but I am cautious about only using 4. AL at this thickness will deform slightly with pressure and I'd rather be safe than sharpen a plane iron with a convex shape. 8 or 12 feetsies should be OK with a 10" stone. Or just rely on your flat marble!Yikes! 4" wide! The alternative is 2.5" wide and a little longer. 2.5" is getting a bit skimpy for some of my plane blades. I'd rather have the greater width. And my long spoke shave blades can be tidied up by going across the narrow dimensions.And...amazingly...you won't ever have to flatten these puppies! That's a big time saver, as I usually flatten my water stones after about 10 minutes of use.I'll also recommend Veritas's MK.II Honing Guide. Makes irons and chisels SCARY SHARP! My fingers prove it!Nice products!
