You'll just have to experiment. The diamond hones may still be too rough for a straight you need to know the mesh on it. The carborundum is a good general purpose barber hone and the other its impossible to say.

"the champion"= carborundum, a good general purpose barber hone. Once you recieve it lap it wit h1k grit sandpaper on a flat surface to make sure it is good and flat. depending in the level of sharpness of you blade 8-100 laps ought to get it honed. ebay specials may require more time.
Be just and fear not.
