    You CAN use a Coticule as bevelsetter, but the coticules are naturel stones, so there is no way of knowing how fast they cut or what grit they have.

    I have four coticules and they are all great finishers. I tried to hone with different coticules but they where ale great finishers.

    I recommend a Naniva Super stone 1000K as bevel setter. That's a great stone, very fast and precise. And I think it's underrated on forums like this.

    But a great stone and cheap to.

    Using coticules as bevelsetter takes lot of time and patience. If you press to hard you ruin the spine. That is reason I would use a Naniwa.

    Great Idea Kristian, I have 2 of them, now show me a narrow stone I can use.

    and JERRY, I don't think the Botan will give me enough "grit" for a plumb dull razor.
