Diamonds are cut by diamond cutters who are trained to plan the cut, execute it, and then cut facets into the stone and finally polish it.

Tools are not made from diamonds, but may be fabricated with tips made from industrial diamonds.
Diamond-tipped tools -- fabricated using industrial-grade diamonds -- include saws, drills, and most any type of drilling or cutting tool that must cut through hard or delicate surfaces, some with precision.
Diamond cutting is the practice of changing a diamond from a rough stone into a faceted gem. Cutting diamond requires specialized knowledge, tools, equipment, and techniques because of its extreme difficulty.
Sawing is the use of a diamond saw or laser to cut a rough diamond into separate pieces. Bruting is the process whereby two diamonds are set onto spinning axles turning in opposite directions, which are then set to grind against each other to shape each diamond into a round shape. This can also be known as girdling.
Traditionally, a metal bar that has one edge coated with diamond - it is tapped by the jeweler with a mallet. More recently, lasers are used to cut diamonds.
Only diamonds can cut diamonds.
Tools, equipment and jewelery are all mad with diamonds.
Yes, most diamonds mined -- about 80% -- are industrial diamonds that are only used in tools. Industrial diamonds improve precision, durability, and use.
Mine diamonds with an ironpick.
Diamonds are needed in industrial cutting tools.
Jewelry can contain diamonds. Diamonds are also used as drilling or cutting tools. In fact, about 75% of all diamonds mined are used by industry leaving only 25% as viable gemstones.
Industrial diamonds can be used to enhance cutting tools, making them ore precise and longer-lasting.
Eighty percent of all diamonds mined are industrial diamonds, used for tools, lenses and applications where sharp tools and precise tasks are performed. Gem-quality diamonds will continue to be used as valuable items.
Diamonds are used to enhance cutting tools, because diamonds are the hardest mineral.
Diamonds made in factories are called man-made diamonds.
Diamonds are the hardest material on earth, and 75% of diamonds mined are used in industry. Industrial diamonds are used for cutting tools.
The most common use of diamonds is for industrial tools, because industrial diamonds are the most common diamonds.
Jewelry and industrial cutting tools -- about 75% of diamonds mined are used for the latter purpose.
