Ordered the 120, 320, 1000, 2000, 5000 and a Nagura slurry stone. Hope they live up to their hype. :)

I've been looking at those recently.
Let us know how you like them.

I have a couple Smiths Diamond benchstones that I like, but I was looking for something to further refine my edges. I just haven't saved the money to buy them yet.
 
I have had mine for years, love them. I have 320, 1000, 2000, 8000, and 12000. The 8000 is my least favorite - feels too rubbery to me.
 
I started with a set of Shapton Pro's and still use them when I head over to a friend's house to sharpen their knives. Shapton's are great splash and go knives, although the best I've used are currently my Gesshin soakers.
