Thread: King 6K, 10K or 12K next.

I noticed that you have a trans arkie. While I don't own one, I have heard that they can be used as finishing stones similar to Chinease Natural 12k, Dragon's Tongue, etc. Might you be able to save money and just go straight from the King 6k to the arkie?

The reason I point this out is that my routine is to go from a Norton 1k, 4k, and 8k to the CNat 12k. I get very nice edges off of my CNat. So if the King Icebar 6k is more like a Norton 8k, it makes me wonder if you could just jump straight to a natural finisher like you arkie?

Otherwise, the Naniwa 10k seems to come heavily recommended and appears a good value.
