Cheapest place to buy 1000ish grit stone?

[killa_concept]

Right now I just have a generic norton stone and sharpening things with has given decent enough of results... but the other day, I pulled out some 1000grit sandpaper and finished off a knife sharpening session with it then followed by stropping with an old leather belt. Really allowed for a razor sharp edge that retains a lot better!

Now I'm curious as to where I can just buy a decent 1000-2000grit stone... looking to stay as cheap as possible though

Thanks in advance!

Lot's of waterstones here and at good prices too. I have this one and am very pleased with it.http://www.highlandwoodworking.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=1495

A little higher in price and made from ceramic a spyderco medium benchstone is another option. http://www.knifecenter.com/kc_new/store_detail.html?s=SP302M

And lets not forget about diamonds, this is also a 1200 grit stone. http://www.knifecenter.com/kc_new/store_detail.html?s=DMTD8E
