Thread: Dedicated Bevel Setting ....

I just finished testing the Naniwa Chosera 1K, Shapton Pro 1K & Shapton Glass 1k, Naniwa 1K and Norton 1K.
I used a slurry on all the hones and tested using German full hollow ground razors.

To me, the Chosera is the fastest cutting of the above hones. I rank their performance in the order listed above.

The DMT 1200 cuts faster but it will also wear out much faster than the Chosera. The Chosera gives you more bang for the buck. It will last much longer than the DMT 1200.

This hone is really not necessary for the average user, any of the above will be adequate. But for a person honing a bunch of razors the Chosera is excellent.....til a better one comes along!
