Thanked: 6A first hone for touch-up
I just started straight shaving 2 days ago... In the next month or two I'd like to get into honing, most likely with something not quite as nice as my new Dovo... I'd like to get a fine stone (I'm thinking a Norton 4k/8k would be over kill just for putting the edge back on a razor in good shape), and I was thinking of the Chinese 12k. But I was wondering if anyone knew the grit rating of a Spyderco Ultra Fine? It's considerably more expensive, but I figure no lapping will be required.
What do you guys think? What's a good 'first hone' for bringing a razor back to shave ready? And yes, I read the wiki
