I’m new to the sharpening game and have learned a lot in the last few months. But - I haven’t yet internalized even the major concepts. I think I understand the difference between grits when talking about sandpaper. A 60 grit paper would have about 60 abrasive particles per square inch? But I’m having difficulty understanding the difference between oil stone and water stone grits. For example, I have an old Norton Tri-Stone oil stone system (IM313) that includes a coarse stone (‘coarse crystolon’ - made of silicon carbide), a medium stone (‘medium crystolon’ - also made of silicon carbide) and a fine stone (made of aluminum oxide). The corresponding grits are listed as 100, 150 and 320 respectively. I can’t get my head around the comparative ‘grits’ reported by water stones because a medium water stone sharpening grit is reported to be around 1000, with fine grits moving into the 4K, 5K, 8K and even 10K range. Can someone please help this old geezer with my problem understanding how the grits actually compare - and why there’s a huge discrepancy? Thank you in advance!
