I decided to buy a few hones to try out. I bought all four from Tilly (redtrader99... an excellent person to deal with) but don't really know exactly how one differs from another.

I purchased the following hones:

Itsapeach
Gem
Cushion hone
lithide

Could anyone guestimate in order which is most coarse and which is most fine? I'm sure some if not all overlap each other in terms of function, but I figured one couldn't have too many hones.

Any other characteristics of any of these hones will be greatly appreciated!

BTW, are any of these hones considered "barber" hones?

Thanks in advance!
