Thanks Martin, i already know the document. I probably didnt explain my statement correct or detailed enough, as i was referring in the thinking of working after a 1K stone with serious steel removal...

I cited Barts statement in comparison of GBB/BBW:

"That makes BBW's slower than Coticules and if we are aiming for serious steel removal during the first stages of honing, the average Coticule will perform a great deal faster than any BBW. Hence, if the choice to do serious bevel correction is between Coticule and BBW, pick the Coticule."
