    I use almost the same progression but from the Shapton Professional line, 1k / 5k / 16k / Jnat.

    The edges I get from my Shobudani are amazing but I have no other jnat to make comparisons .
    My Shobudani is my first jnat, it cost around £300.
    I was looking at a Nakayama costing £700 and wondering , would it give me a better edge? or is the price just for the rarity of the stone?
    Any thoughts , anyone?
