    I'm no expert here but my understanding is .... hones = apples and diamond paste = oranges. Grit size is only 1 factor to consider. You have shape, the hardness of the grit, and what the grit is bonded to/with just to name a few.

    Think about the same size diamond grit. 1 in paste that will roll slide move out of the way. The 2nd fastened to a steel plate, unyielding, rigid pointed edges. Each will have a different effect on the steel eh ?
