How are diamonds cut?

I was talking to my six year old son about diamond being the hardest substance known to man. I asked him what he thoght was used to cut diamonds and he realised that only another diamond would do the job. He then made the very good point that surely to cut something as hard as a diamond you need something harder than diamond. I said I would try to find out the answer. Can anyone help?
