I just got a set of Shapton glass stones (500, 2000 and 8000) with a holder. I plan to use the 2000 and 8000 for razors, but would also like to add a coarse stone so that I would have a compact 3 stone set (all stones packed inside the holder) - so 120/220 & 500 & 2000 for travel. So I would either get 120 or 220 Glass stone to go with 500 and 2000. This coarse stone would be used to thin low to mid range stainless knives at my relative's places.
So while I am aware that often the Shpaton Pro 120 is being recommended as very coarse stone - I am primarily looking to get either Glass 120 or Glass 200. I am not too concerned about the thickness/wear as this stone will not be used all that often.
I would love to hear your experience with these two stones. I browsed existing threads, but it seems that few have experience with both.
Thanks
