I'm in the throws of deciding what hones to buy (on a tight budget) with a view to buying the odd vintage str8 to clean up and get shave ready for myself.

I'm wondering particularly if 2000 grit will be sufficient as a bevel setter or if i would also need to invest in a 1000 grit.

Eden Quality Combi Waterstone grain 2000 / 5000

The next hone in the progression will be a Dragons Tongue Welsh slate (which I have just received) and then I expect I shall get a Chinese 12k as a final finisher.
