This stone is not quite as coarse as the coarser stones and can also be used as a medium-coarse stone for those who want to quickly sharpen a new primary edge. You can use the knife directly after #500, but the edge will be rough, dull, and difficult to get truly sharp. On the other hand, it will have an incredible bite that is fantastically good when you need to cut through the skin of a tomato.

Glass and Rockstar are relatively similar in hardness. A hard stone is practical as you don't need to flatten it as often. On the other hand, the Pro stone is thicker. We estimate that the lifespan of the Pro stone is slightly longer than Glass, but Shapton Glass maintains its shape better. Rockstar is thicker than Glass and has a slightly longer lifespan, although there isn't a significant difference.\u003cbr\u003eOne advantage of Shapton Pro is that it comes with a holder\/case, and the stone is reversible. This means you can use both sides of the stone, which can be practical if you have a nick in the stone or if it has lost its shape. Rockstar is also reversible, while Glass is fixed to its glass plate. This, on the other hand, allows you to use the stone all the way down to the adhesive. To summarize, all stones are of the highest conceivable quality and are fully comparable.
