In my limited experience with the DT's I would say that a DT with slurry would be coarser than 5K but a DT with just water might do the trick.

I rate my DT as about 6K. I use it in a Norton 4k/ DT/Norton 8K sequence with good results.

The stones look just fine! flatten one top and one side, round the edges and your set. I would gladly buy one from you as is! I am serious! Plus a small stone to use as a slurry stone. Let me know.:tu

I will see what I can do in the near future!:)

In your search for British hones remember to look for the "Silkstone" from Cambrock England.

I have 2 of them and they will never be sold.:)
