    Sounds like Naniwa is getting a lot of votes here. I have the exact stone set up that you are working with, and I've added a greek Vermio finisher after my 8k. I really like it, very easy to use and it makes the edge very comfortable to me.

    Eh, I was just sticking to the hones the OP was already considering. There are a lot of great razor finishers out there.

    I love my Shapton Glass 16K hone to finish with. Sometimes I tame the edge a little on my Coti. under running water. Just 4 no pressure laps on the Coti helps on some razors. I also have a vintage "Raven" Barbers hone for touch ups mainly but I sometimes I finish on it.

    Good luck with that, Marshal. I went to the site to check on their prices, and after clicking on at least a dozen offerings that were "not available," I gave up. They should add an "available" filter if some are actually indeed for sale.
