Mine is my Norton 8k. I've finished all my honing jobs on that one.
All 2 of them.

Most razors I finish on my PHIG(luckily got one of the top notch ones). On harder steels, such as American razors, I use a well loved, old surgical black Arkansas. Leaves an edge that would crumble on softer steels.

Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

Shapton 30.000 Glasstone. I love it!
Occassionaly I use 1µm diamond lapping film, an Ohzuku and a Shobudani. But nothing beats the feel of the 30k (disclaimer: personal preference!)
