Diamonds are really hard but there’s other things that are pretty much up there. Unless you’re planning on repeatedly punching sharpened graphite spikes with no gloves on wear isn’t really a problem.

You might be thinking of cubic zirconium, which is another replacement for diamond. That one is softer, but my understanding is that it’s still quite difficult to scratch
