Rather than ask this on the Japanese chisel sharpening thread, I’ll start a new thread. Someone mentioned that chisels don’t need over 6,000 grit because an edge above that won’t stand up to chopping. What top grit do you use on chisels? Do you differentiate between chopping and paring chisels?
*sorry for another sharpening thread but was curious. Have a 6k king stone that was one of the first two sharpening stones I bought way back when but now have an 8k ceramic and a new 12k I haven’t used yet.
