Glass stones vs Shapton pros?
I like the Shapton Glass, I have the 1000, 4000, 8000, 16000. I like the feel when sharpening on them. The stone maintenance is about as minimal as it gets. As for wearing them out I think if you sharpened knives professionally maybe, but as a hobbyist I won't wear them out. Their lapping plate/stone is really nice too. I will get the 30000 eventually but at $400 I just finished with half micron diamond on a strop which is a similar finish. So to me the flatness and the minimal maintenance and easy of storage are really the selling points.
