Hello, I recently purchased a 4k equivalent and 8k equivalent dmt. So I did a hone on a new blade with the 1200, 6 micron(4k) and 3 micron (8k) dmts, then finished on 1 um film and crox and 100 laps on .1 cbn on nanocloth, 100 leather. Excellent edge and shave. I broke them in well with a shank of a screwdriver to make sure the surface was smooth and the loose diamond was knocked off. Very fast, no microchips. A little soapy water on each. And no lapping or slurry banging into your edge especially at the lower grit. Anybody else out there using this progression of dmts? I was under the impression that it might lead to a harsh shave but that was not the case.
