Good points all around...
It sounds like you are wanting to go from un-honed to completely shave ready.
If that is the case, it could be done a lot less expensively than your list.
Were it me, and it was a year ago, I would go with a coticule combo or a norton 4k/8k. You will be able to get a shave ready blade off of either of those after learning the honing process. My first choice out of the two is the coticule as it is extremely versatile. It serves as a great finishing hone and when used with varying amounts of slurry, it is great for sharpening and polishing a bevel. Coticules tend to help you avoid over honing a razor as well.
Hope this helps!
