I would like to have a setup where I can sharpen any blade & types of metal they come in.I seen the wicked edge system.It looks nice but pricey($700 for pro pack 2).I like that setup because I don't have steady hands.I'm interested in the shapton stones.Where can I find guides in different degree angles?I will not be able to keep a angle without them.What grits should I get?I think anymore than 3 is overboard.I was thinking a 320(for dull/knicked), 3,000(touchup & polish) & 16,000(mirror polish).$252 + $102 for stone holder,$354.3 x 11 kangaroo strop $50 & Chromium Oxide Paste .5 Micron $20,$424.30 total.Probably would be around $454 with sharpening guides.I'd like some that are rubber in the grip or plastic,not bare metal.Would this be a decent setup to start with?
I'm kinda up in the air with honing rods.I can hold a angle good with these.I'm thinking a MAC Black Ceramic Honing Rod 10.5" $55 & a Global Replacement Diamond Rod $119,$174.I could stick the global on a board & sharpen instead of paying a extra $66 for a handle.Won't be buying this all at once.I'm just looking at options for now.
