From reading this forum, it would seem if you are going to use a ceramic hone sparingly & judiciously, the preferred one is a Mac Black with an Idahone in second place. Please correct me if this is wrong. In addition to some "real" steels, I currently have a very cheap ceramic hone from Ikea and would like to get a Mac Black.
I can get the 10" Mac Black delivered for AUD$80 (US$60) but would like to ask if anyone has bought/used the 10" black ceramic sold by Chef's Armoury? It is a "home brand" they have made for them and is AUD$10 less than the Mac.
Alternatively, I could save money by buying a 10" Idahone for considerably less. Even a 12" Idahone would be a cheaper option.
Thanks
