I am building my first razor with a Gold Dollar blade blank and off the shelf plastic scales. Don't say it...Yes...I know. But I really want the experience before I tackle more advanced projects.

My question is simple-- I need a stone that can remove some serious metal to set a good bevel on the GD blade I don't want to use my nice 1K Naniwa stone...I am looking at either a Chosera or King stone. Certainly the King is less expensive. Any comments? Ideas?
