I've been looking at local suppliers (in Australia) and came across these:
Japanese Coarse Stones (8000 grit) : CARBA-TEC
Clicking on the image gives closer view and the brand appears to be "King stone". Has anyone heard of them?
I'm thinking of getting the 4k and 8k stones.
Not sure if I should do this or look at the Norton starter kit.
Or something else? Naniwa superstones? 5k and 8k.
(Have to order from US)
Thanks,
Michael
