Crikey, Ed. Manmade = artificial in most people's books. Damned literalists. I swear...

I think it was the fat edge angle thing, you had to use a lot of pressure to get it started under the skin. The metal blade things from Wallys for $0.98 pare the skin right off.

I'm with Ed on this. OK on the " Manmade = artificial" BUT it's not "diamond" it can be "Manmade or artificial JEMS". (paste) ...lew...

That's GEMS not JEMS and Cubic Zirconia is anything BUT a diamond: while its Index of Refraction is higher than crystaline carbon, CZ is much softer and can be scratched easily by steel.
