Sounds like a 5/8". If you take the diamond dresser out and stand it up with the diamond pointing up then the line above the 1/2" mark is a 5/8". The line below the 1/2" is a 3/8". The closer the line is to the diamond the flatter you will make the hollow.

can you not do fractions? 5/8 is the same as 10/16, which is double what he had thought it was.

and there's a pretty big difference between 5/8 and 7/16. Remind me to never let you sharpen my skates.
