I will be using the stones on White paper steel and want a knife that has a bit of bite in it.
So far I'm thinking of getting a sigma select II 1200 (permasoak) plus a splash n go or quick soak stone (2-3 mins) in the 3-5k range. I hear that DMT EF would be what I'm looking for and others say to avoid using diamonds on White paper steel. Is there a water stone that would be similar but not as aggressive to create a polished bevel and a toothy type edge. What would you recommend?
