Thread: What Do You Think About The Shapton 30K

Because I have already gone down this rabbit hole over and over and over you have fun searching all this out,,, Hint : all the info is here on SRP

You need to realize those Charts are NOT accurate, haven't found one, not one that doesn't have errors

The Norton 8k is rated on the Japanese scale

Natural stones and Barber's hones don't have grit ratings, and then ones that have been attributed to them have steadily gone higher over the last 7+ years I have been reading about them

Differences in Binders and Grit are more important then many think

Grit Numbers are useless except within the same series of hones, you can't even compare the Naniwa Super Stone 1k to the Naniwa Chosera 1k

You might want to listen to what the guy in the Shapton vids says, "Used in sequence, on the right steel"

Using Lynn's famous sig

Now "Have Fun" searching out all that, it really is all quite obvious and is all found right here on SRP
