New guy here... Been shaving d/e for awhile and recently ordered my 1st straight razor. As it is truly shave ready, all I will be doing to it is stropping for now; although I do want to learn to hone- just not on my new, professionally sharpened Dovo.

I plan on learning to hone on an older vintage blade or two, working up to maybe setting the 1st bevel on a new "factory" edge before screwing up the edge on my new 1st shaver...

Anyway, I plan to get a Norton 4k/8k combo and a Naniwa 12k and maybe an extra bench strop for chromium oxide or diamond spray...

Finally, my question...
Can i use the same flattening stone on the 12k Naniwa as the Norton or should they be separate?

Thanks in advance,
