Re: Which Stones??? (a tip for novice)

Ok, I have a problem. I used my 220 grit, seeing that it did not sharpen my scandi knife uniformly, I checked and it was to be lapped. I bought 80 grit sandpaper and lapped. Now the stone is flat, but I feel the surface smooth and no longer eat the steel of the knives. What happened? I have to buy a...

Re: Which Stones??? (a tip for novice)

I'm just wondering if there are non-combo models. I am terrified that the combos will break or crack.

Re: Which Stones??? (a tip for novice)

So I buy Naniwa Traditional stones or Kink?

I ask one more thing, I would like to reset the bevel to my razor and I was thinking of starting with a 1K,
then I don't know whether to go to Coticule (Le Grise) or buy an intermediate grain stone (5k).

As mentioned in the first post, I am undecided between King, Naniwa traditional / Skerper and at this point Cerax, but the Cerax really cost a lot, consideri...
