Japanese King Waterstones
I hope that this doesn't sound like a really stupid question but I bought a set of Japanese King Waterstones in 800, 1,200 and 6,000 grit along with a Nagura stone (6,000) and a stone holder. I bought these for my Japanese Hattori HD kitchen knives. The 800 and 1,600 each measure 207x66x34mm (8.1"x2.5"x1.3") and the 6,000 is a little smaller at 185x62x19mm (7.2"x2.4"x0.75")
Would they also be suitable for honing my razor when the time comes? I haven't needed to use them for my knives yet so they are still in their boxes untouched. I have to say that I will probably send it off to Neil at the Strop Shop but it would be nice to know if I could do it myself without buying a bunch of new stuff.
Advice would be appreciated.
