    Default What is the more important stone ???

    Here is a thought I had as I satisfied my HAD last night and ordered 2 more stones....
    What is the more important side of the honing spectrum???
    Do you get more and more low end bevel setting stones, or do you get the high end finishers....

    I mean think about this, every single experienced person with honing agrees on one thing whether they be a "Honemiester" and get paid, or just very experienced with honing, the one statement that every one agrees with is "A sharp edge begins with a sharp even bevel" ....

    Now keep in mind that I probably do more restoration projects and repairs than most people so my low end is kind of important to me..

    You see tons of people that have finishing stones from an 8k Norton on up to 30k-40k, everyone seems to be chasing the upper end all the way to .10 diamond pastes...
    I was thinking that really it is the lower end that is actually more important...

    But what do you guys think???
