Nothing wrong with that combo stone & the internet prices are great for that stone, but as you know, it's the person behind the stone that makes all the difference.
As Shooter stated, many opt for the Norton 4/8.s0litarys0ldier likes this.

One thing to keep in mind is the King also makes 4k and 8k stones ie: it isn't that I think King makes a bad stone, it is the Grit level of that combo stone I think will leave you a little low

I have never been a fan of King's but they will work. I find that having a bevel setter at the 1K level and honing stones at the 4K and 8K levels produce more consistent and better shaving results than just having a 6K stone. YMMV, but not if you do any amount of honing.
Have fun.
