Does anyone have a Shapton Pro / Kuromaku AND the same grit Shapton M15? Are they the same stones sans the base?
Shapton M15 series and Pro / Kuromaku the same stone?

I don't have identical stones from both series, but I can provide some theoretical information.
Shapton Pro and Shapton M15 should be identical, Shapton M5, on the other hand, has a lower proportion of abrasive agents, a cheaper version with a slightly lower quality.
Shapton M25 should be almost identical to Pro / M15, only slightly thicker (25 mm) and, like the M15, on a wood basis. Possibly (I have read different opinions here and there) with a somewhat less hard binder.
I hope this helps ..

Yea, that's what I heard. Was curious if anyone with both could confirm.
27:40 in he begins to compare.
Brilliant. Thanks
