My regime is 1K Chosera for bevel then 4/8K Shapton GS for mid work then either a Shinden Asagi or Narutaki Asagi and then linen and leather and if needed do say 5-7 laps on .5 CrOx but 99% of the time no CrOx, have thought about adding a 16K Shapton just to add some varienty along with Jnats and the only and only coticule I own.
