Ok guys i have just got my first Kamisuri ,it had never been honed but i have started to hone it with a bbw because i didnt want to go to coarse on it.So the bbw is working but its taking a long time its nearly there but not quite ,would a 1000 or 2000 grit synthetic be ok to speed things up a bit and get the bevel set or should i just be patient and keep on with the bbw.Here are some picks of where i am up to any advice would be great thanks,there is a little spot on the front of the blade and the heal of the front of the blade does not even look like its being hit by the hone.
