Knife was sent out to Robin today. Will get back with a little review later.

The knife just arrived in Stockholm. Looking forward to try it out!

Will be away for 2 weeks as well so send it off to our us friends.

I'm off on holidays for a few weeks so looks like I will have to pass this one. Sorry.

Lost track of this one but now I'm in the game again... Sounds like a plan, it probably makes mor sense staring in Finland an let it travel west

Pär Johansson, Stockholm. Very interested in participating.

Naturally it's called ferric not iron... Thanks for the info!

I have an old Hattori HD5 I like to re-etch. I'm living in Sweden and we don't have radio shack, so what's the compound in the etchant you use? Iron chloride? Anyone have an idea on what grit finish it's on the HD series, 600 as well? Cheers

Välkommen!!! Kul med en sthlmare.

I'm in!

Got an email today confirming the order and shipping fee. He asked to send PP payment to his email.

There is also some Kuro Nakiri but Shigefusa is missspelled, you find it in the same shop but here http://global.rakuten.com/en/store/nzshinkai/item/265207/. Just picked one...

To UK you can get a godo price on shipping from http://www.edenwebshops.co.uk but they mainly carry the Chosera stones. I have bought quite a few from them with no hassle. Par

Thanks everyone for input!!

Actually I do use the 1k - 5k combo quite often. Agree on the SS 3k, that's what kicked this off, it almost feels finer then the 5k and was the reason why I wanted something else in between. The SS was a baste red until I learned to use it. Killed a lot of edges for me, sort of like it now...

So I assume you like the 3k? Out of curiosity, what do you finish with?

Do same when I'm lazy i.e. 1000-5000 but get at better result with a stone in between. For some knife I want to stop earlier than 5k but after 1k so that's also an aspect. Got a 8000 SS for finish but to be honest I usually strops after 5k instead.

Hi I got the #400, #1000 and #5000 Chosera stones and use a SS 3000 in between the 1000 and 5000. To the question... I consider replacing the SS 3000, what do you recommend, the Chosera 2000 or 3000 or maybe something else? Cheers Pär
