Thread: Favorite Bevel Setter....

What is everyones favorite stone for setting bevels? I got a 220/1k norton when I bought my 4/8 but dont really like it so I need some ideas on a new one

A lot of people use the King 1k and seem to like it.

i like my boker 1k but it is a soft stone. i also have a 1.2k king and a 1.5k boker they are great too. i'm not a fan of the norton 1k.

Norton 4K is my favorite.

I have used several bevel setters and in my opinion, the King 1k reigns over them all. Haven't tried the Chosera yet though.

1k Chosera for me

I'm assuming you mean you dislike the 1k side ? Have you read this thread ?
Dedicated Bevel Setting ....

You might laugh, but I use a Norton India stone. I didn't like synthetic waterstones. I think there are probably better options than the India, but it does what I need it to. Same price you could get a King though I think.

King 1k is a great stone, it doesn't gouge a scratch pattern like some other 1k's and you can't beat it for the price.

I like the speed and feel of the Norton 1000. The 220 is way too soft, though.
