    All you need is a Norton 4/8K and a Nani 12K. You'll have to use the course grit to move some metal and then the finisher will work just fine. I wish that someone had told me that these 2 stones are all that you'll need as a newbie. It would have saved me a lot of money and frustraton.

    Try to make it up to the Toronto get together at Maxi's place in February. There'll be a ton of stones to see and gentlemen who know how to use them. They'll get you sorted out...
