Is a 30k stone worth $280?
I noticed this ages ago, and then forgot about it when I started using pastes.(They have since fallen out of favour with me, I like stones better)
Shapton makes a glass-stone at 30k. Does anybody think it would be worth it?
I prefer the edge from stones so if it gave a good finish like a paste, but more reliable then I might consider it.
I never hear anything about it on this forum, but I gather maybe somebody on B&B tried and compared the edge to a feather. Does anyone think this could be true?
Do you think an edge honed at such a high grit would need maintenance more often?
I need an extremely fine grit to get a comfortable shave, and I can't decide if it is worth spending that much or if I should stick to pastes and get .25 or .1 micron (if I can find it)
Any pointers would be appreciated.
