Hello all ! (and here is more a polisher topic)
I am polishing the bevels of my knives (double bevel, mild steel + C130) with synthetic stones from 320 grit to 3000 grit then I go Naturals with Natsuya and Mikawa, then finer naturals. One of my issues thoses days is that Natsuya (that I really like if 2000 scratches are erased) is not powerful enough to erase 2000 grit Bester scratches (which I like to use), so I need a synthetic 3000 or 4000 to erase them before going to Naturals.
For now, I tried : Naniwa pro 3000 (too soft, too sticky, but really fast erasing the scratches, it's just not a joy to use for me), Suehiro Cerax 3000 (fast enough to erase the scratches too but I get some bad scratches with it if the bevel is not perfect, feeling is so so with this stone), 4000 Bester (not fast enough), 4000 Morihei (not fast enough).
Do you have any advises ?
Have a good day/evening
