I've just gone through the Shapton upgrade... nice hones and really fast cutters, but I'm discovering that my Coticule really does a fine job on polishing those ubersharp edges that I can generate with the Shaptons... I go to 16K on the Shapton but the 8-10k garnets in the Coticule still *improve* the edge afterwards for me. I get far better edges from my Coticule now than I used to before I got the Shaptons.
