I'm so excited to try those methods of honing with just one coticule, from bevel to finish. But I've read that the pinker or cream coloured ones are faster cutters and therefore softer. On the other hand, the greener it gets, the harder it is and better for finishing purposes, if I get it right from all that reading!

Should I tell to the vendor to pick up for me one bout with a particular colouration , that would be more efficient for 1 stone honing use? I mean, of course a faster cutter like pink could speed up things, but I dont know if it could give such a good polish in the end than a green could.

If that helps I rotate some TI's C135 for my daily shaving and they will go on that coticule.

Thanks for reading this
