Hello all,

I'm about to buy some new honing equipment; I already decided for the naniwa 1000 as a grinding stone to set the initial bevel, but I have some concern on the polishing stone to buy.

Can you share your experience with naniwa 12k and shapton 16k?

These are the two stones I identified as the possible ones to buy.
Consider that, at least for the moment, I'm not using posted strops, so the razor would just go from the finisher to the linen strop and then leather strop.

What would you guys recommend?
