When I first started honing I had the 4/8 norton and the 3 line Swaty the old barber gave me. I used the Swaty after the 8k until Randy encouraged me to make sure the razor was shave ready at the 8k level. I went with that for awhile and eventually picked up a 12K Shapton Pro ...... followed by a bunch of others. Anyway, the shave off the Swaty was good IIRC ....... it was a long time ago.
