I am interested in getting a cubic boron nitride stone. I have heard of some that are in the matrix rather than just a surface coating. Can anyone point me to a source for stones like this? I would be interested in 6X2 or 8X2 size, around 400-600 grit.

Triple B Handmade, Venev, Japanese Knife Imports and Naniwa diamond water stones.

Those are all diamond, the OP specifically asked for CBN.

To the OP, why specifically CBN?
 
Thanks for the video. They admit in the beginning that the grit can be torn from the plate with pressure. Diamond and this platting will do it. DM

I know, that's me :D it's still a plate the idea is that the CBN would not break down in geometry as rapidly and be better adhered to the plate than diamond, if I go heavy on the pressure it's not going to defy the laws of physics, it just may last longer than a DMT if both are used properly.

The OP is asking about bonded stones not coated stones.

He could be under the impression that all bonded non plated waterstones are CBN and no diamond since these types of stones are not common still or maybe has some reason why he would like CBN over Diamond in a bonded stone.

Until he answers no one will ever know.
 
I would be interested in that^ in a good grit.
Plattings don't last with me. Thanks, DM
