800 too coarse foe Bevel Setting?
I haven't honed a razor yet, but I can feel the bug coming close so I have some questions. I'd like to buy a Norton 4k/8k. I've been reading through the Janorton Thread. I happen to have a King 800/4000k combination hone that I got years ago. I have read that a 1000k stone is the standard for bevel setting. I can set a bevel on a Norton 4/8 but seems like it would be easier with a 1k. Is this right? If so, could I just use the King 800 or is that too aggressive. I will be honing a Boker King Cutter (a couple of years old). It's not in real bad shape but does need to be honed. I may kill the edge first to have a good start.
