So I'm looking for a stone i can either leave at work or carry with me, i was thinking like a 2-3k stone but then again I'm not sure.
I currently have a dmt xxc, gesshin 400, king 1k, 6k, and a takashima.
I think the 1k is a little too course for what i normally like, and the 6k is a little too refined after a good hard day or two if i need to touch it up while at work.
Id be using it when it starts to feel dull, and stropping isn't really bringing it back.
I normally sharpen at this point but today i was at work at 5am and really needed a stone, needles to say it was a rough day with a dull knife.
Id like something light and smaller if possible so that my bag wouldn't be super heavy but then again i want something that is of good quality.
