Hello everyone,
I'm still putting together my starter sharpening kit, based on all of the info that I've been reading about on this forum
Here is what I got so far:
- Suehiro Deluxe Stone holder
- Atoma 140 flattening plate
- Chosera 1000
So I think the only thing still missing is a finishing stone.
It seems that two popular choices are either Suehiro Rika 5K or Chosera 5k. It appears that Chosera is 3 times as expensive as Rika.
I have 2 questions:
1) Is Chosera really that much better? Specifically for a beginner?
2) Is there a 3rd choice I should be looking at?
Thanks guys!
Alex
