That is the question!:
So i am here again, 93 days later ive still not placed an order for a Guided system.
I decided on the Kadet, it went out of stock, swapped over to the Hapstone R2 black, then i was in a massive debate on the stones - as a total beginner i was reluctant to buy the Premium CBN's but then was like man, buy once cry once.
Well i was about to pull the trigger and buy it
But then im like damn, do i wanna spend a grand to sharpen my low end kitchen knives!?
More digging and talking to others, i am now back at square one.
Should i just get Atoma Diamond plates and free hand, albeit, ive tried for a year and failed at freehand with my whetstones.
Or should i consider the RS and some Carbide stones?
I am in the UK so i really dont need to be chasing mirrors on them sexy EDC's as we simply dont have a big market over here, so ill be working on kitchen knives mainly.
can someone please help me make sense of this minefield.
I WILL be investing in some decent kitchen knives and a CR EDC, i dont plan on working on others knives but i will do friends and families once im Ok...,
