Thread: which naniwa to get......

I have 1k 3k 5k 8k 12k i think 3k is more like norton 4k and 5k naniwa is more closer to 8k norton

I have the 1k 3k 5k and I've only done a few razors on them and only used the norton 4k 8k once, but it seems like a valid point. The micron sizes compare. Many people say you do not need both, but I dunno. I would honestly say get both, because you could go from 1k to 5k, but in some situations you won't need to drop down to the 1k, but the 5k would be too fine to start on. That was my thought.

I'm with Gary and Karl on the 1,3,5, and 8. If you have the extra $ go for the 12 too. If the $ are tight some chrom ox and make a balsa strop and get the 12K when you have the extra $$.
