Cheap 204 diamond rods!

[ThinkOfTheChildren]

Ok, so they're still not cheap, but they're a lot cheaper. BestKnives has the Spyderco 204 diamond rods for $50 here: http://store.yahoo.com/bestknives/spydtriansha.html

Thanks to Amy Wilkerson who posted this in another thread, but I thought it deserved its own thread so you would all know.

I ordered my pair, now go order yours!

Hey, thanks for the credit! I was going to check this thread out to see if someone had found a better deal than I did, and it turned out you mentioned BestKnives.com! A pleasant surprise.

Any recent cheap pricing for the rods anywhere ?

TIA

This is from their web site:

"Spyderco Diamond Stone
Add on for the Tri-Angle Sharpmaker. Item Number: SC-204D
Hollowed out to lessen overall weight, each rod is seven inches long and the three flat (triangular) sides are half an inch wide. Made of nickel-coated steel and plated with microscopic diamond particles, they are moderately coarse at 400 mesh and capable of removing a great deal of metal quickly during sharpening. Running the length of each rod is a channel for honing pointed items such as fishhooks, awls and darts. The three corners of the triangle make quick work of re-beveling serrated edged cutlery and the flat sides effortlessly whet plain edges. An inch along the bottom of each triangle is not diamond plated allowing the rods to smoothly slide into the Sharp Maker's base.

Price.....$56.18 A Pair"

Best I have seen. I picked up a pair here myself.

Great site, great to deal with. Very highly rated here also.
