I've been digging through the forums, but I seem to be getting conflicting messages on this topic.
For the 300-500-grit range splash-and-go stones, how do, say, the Sigma Power Select II 400, the Chosera 400, and Shapton Glass 500 match up?
(Knives likely to be sharpened include German knives as well as Japanese.)
The general gist I'm seeing is that the Shapton and Chosera are "known quantities" with the former offering less material and the latter being slower than its grit rating indicates; the Sigma I can't seem to find that especially much about, though, nor things like the Suehiro Debado 320.
