I am looking to upgrade my whestones. My knives range from wusthofs, to carbon as, to hard stainless like zdp 189.
From what I've read so far I think I'll go with an atoma 400 for flattening, shapton 320 for thinning/chips. I want to add a 1k, a 3k and/or a 5k, I don't think higher grit will be useful but I've only recently gotten okay at sharpening so correct me if I'm wrong.
My question is, should I go with sigma, chosera, suehiro or shapton pro/glass? Are there any other stones I haven't considered?
I live in europe. My budget is around 400 euros but I'd rather buy good stones slowly even if they exceed said budget than go for cheaper and worse.
thank you for your time
