Still, as is advised, learn your 8k first.
So now I have a Norton 4K/8k and a Shapton 12K(15k) on my way, with two shave-ready razors for practicing and also a Dovo Bismarck that should have been shave-ready, but in reality tugged a lot.

I thought I could use the 8K side on the Norton and the Shapton 12K to fix its edge, and just the Shapton 12K to refresh the two shave-ready razors.

So you're saying that, at least for now, I sound refresh their edge just on the 8K?

What about the Dovo, should I go first to the 4K? Or to the King Deluxe 1K? (After learning with the practice razors, of course).

Oh, speaking of the King hone , will it be detrimental to the razors mixing three brands like that?

How would you go about honing with these stones?
