Hey guys,

I've read that the Norton 1k is a "slow cutter". Now, does this mean that it is slow in comparison to other stones of comparable grit (i.e., Naniwa 1k)? I am slightly confused, b/c I know the Norton 4k is often discussed as a fast cutter, and I would assume that the 1k would just cut faster b/c of the lower grit.

Help?
