Thanked: 13234The King 1k actually works quite well
I actually did many of my old honing vids using that hone specifically so that people would understand that a $30 hone works very well..
In many ways it is a really good bevel setter since it cuts very shallow stria and leaves a smooth bevel behind
It is VERY thirsty, and on the slower side of the bevel setting curve..
Using a Diamond plate actually, creates more issues than it solves,, There are tricks to using them for Repairs but as a bevel setter I would recommend nearly anything else over it.. Trust me here, if there were a faster way of setting bevels those of us that hone professionally would be using it everyday"No amount of money spent on a Stone can ever replace the value of the time it takes learning to use it properly"
