What difference instead of feel do you get from different hardness of waterstones?
In terms of the type of edge (more toothy, more refine) what type of edge does a hard stone create that differs from a soft or medium stone and the other way around?
- Soft vs hard vs medium hardness stone?
Where does the binders in the stone and the grit type (ceramic, normal waterstone, natural, diamond waterstone) and the type of manufacturing play a part?
- Binders make any difference? Regular waterstone, ceramic, natural, diamond waterstone on a easy to sharpen steel like white steel what type of edge does a stone of each type at 6000 grit create?
For a softer water stone like the 6000 king stone or a harder stone like a ceramic sigma select II (I think) 6000 or Shapton pro/ glass at the same grit what are the difference in edge on white steel or blue.
