Y/G Escher, any of my JNats, 10K Chosera, 13K Sigma or a 20K Gokumyo.
It all depends on mood and steel. All will do the job just fine..
Y/G Escher for some time now.
I have a vintage thuringian combo that has maxxed every blade that has come through my hands. I love this stone!
escher or jnat or thuringian depends on the razor i will try all three at frist shaveing right off the stone and go with the one that feels the best after that i strop on a strop treated with linde A and finish on a well used tony miller.
I go from a Naniwa 12k to a Salm to a Jnat to an Escher at the moment.
I have a few hones over 8k and they are all naturals. The harder the razor's steel is the harder the 'finisher' I use. If the finisher starts to create a slurry the hone is not hard enough for the razor.
I have hard water. it's all I ever need for my razors.:rofl2:
