I dare you to set the bevel on a 1k hone and then just strop it and shave with it.
Please report back here with your results. You just might be surprised!
OK I cheated I used my 2K Green Brick the other day.
The shave was just so so but I touched up on a coticle hand held hone and it was better than nice.
I grabbed the GB because it polishes as well has cuts steel.
