The wicked edge is what I use.
It allows me to get very nice consistent bevels, I love how precise the edge as a whole comes when utilizing the WE with proper technique.
You can get a pretty good mirror polish edge by going up to 1000 grit diamond, then strop with some compounds starting at 14/10 and taking it from there.
It is quite a great system, just time consuming... I feel like that is it's biggest con. Other than that, I feel as though its superior to other systems. Also, free handing is very cool, however no matter how good you are, you literally cant be as precise as a guided system like the we will be.
