With regard to sharpening. I use a 240/400 grit stone, then a 600 grit stone, then a 1000, 2000, 3000, then lastly the leather strop.
I need a new 600 grit stone.
If I buy a 25 micron/800 grit diamond stone (to replace my 600 grit), will there be any problem with using a diamond stone, while the rest of the stones are all regular whetstones?
This might be a dumb question but I would love to tap into the vast knowledge on this site. Is there any problem using a mix of whetstones and diamond stones? As far as I know there is no reason to have all whetstones or all diamond stones, so why not mix them to get the grit you need?
Thank you.
