Naniwa Chosera 400 vs Shapton glass 500 for rough work
I am looking for a stone to do my rough work before bevel setting, and I have thought about a 400 Chosera or a 500 Shapton glass. I don't really like the feel of diamond hones, so I need something coarser than my 1k Chosera to do the work.
I need mainly those people who have used both, but everyone is welcome with their opinions who have used one of the two :)
The most important question would be: Which is the faster stone, and which is better feeling in use?
I am interested in any other constuctive opinions too, but these two questions are the most important to me atm. How much soaking do they need, how fast they dish, etc, these aren't that important, but I welcome any help to choose wich one to buy :)
Thank you very much for your help in advance!
