    Default Bevel setter upgrade

    Hi guys,

    I'm currently using a Naniwa 1/3k combination stone for bevel setting. This is the first stone I've bought. I liked the price point and I found it to be pretty good to learn on.
    But ...
    All the razors I have are vintage and in need of some touch up/restoration work. The nani 1/3k, while usable, doesn't really cut the mustard for me and I need a better bevel setting stone.

    I know the Chosera/Professional 1k is the benchmark in bevel setting, but I don't think I can afford it right now.
    Looking at alternatives (like the King 1k, Naniwa Traditional or SS 1k, Shapton pro, etc) I got less than a clear picture.

    From what I've read, I'm inclined to go with the Shapton Pro(Ha No Kuromaku) 1.5k. What do you guys think?

    Thanks!
