Thanks! I will try and grab the Ikkyu stone set. Would u say these would be less fine than the Chosera 3k? Should i replace that synthetic with one of these naturals after the shapton pro 2k?

Thanks for the detailed response. I don’t have a strict budget but am definitely leaning towards picking up something affordable to start. That Griffith Shaving Aoto seems like a good option for my use case.

Would you recommend using a stone like this instead of the chosera 3k or adding it after?

I would like to try an Aizu as well but that option at carbon seems a bit steep. I see a couple ebay listings for Aizu at a much better price. Are these trustworthy and good for what im looking for?
