Hi Briar,
If you get a sharpening fixture with some different V angle or flat templates you can sharpen all sorts of gravers points ,the basic I can suggest are V96,V116 and a flat and knife combination templates to start with the diamond bench stone set,for grinding the points ;

Also get some hss,M42,and some carbalt graver blanks to make these points from.When you make points from these blanks they will cut almost any metal.
Nice work there by the way, .
