One more thought, Sham (hi_bud_gl) and I were talking once and he pointed out that if you go to an Escher or an expensive J-nat, coticule ..... whatever finisher, you are wearing the expensive stone with work that could be accomplished with a cheaper and easily replaceable synthetic. Made sense to me and I've changed my honing practices accordingly.
