I never went below 120 on my Lansky set, so I wasn’t even looking at the 50/80 for now. I can see where it would be a must have for chisels. I am debating on ordering the 1500/2200 with a set of strops. Being new to the Wicked Edge I am not expecting, or chasing a mirror edge until I get some time behind it. I just want to get the process down and have sharp knives at first. Is the 1500/2200 “necessary” after 800/100 and before a 5/3.5 micron strop?

Thanks for all the info everyone! I just ordered the WE130 and 800/1000 diamond stones. I want to get familiar with this basic setup and figure out what my next purchases will be(I already know there will be many more lol).

Thank you for the welcome and the info. After reading through some of your other replies on the topic of Japanese kitchen knives, I think I have a bit more research to do. Even though I will be sharpening various styles, my kitchen knives get the most use by far. I just bought a couple Shun premier (VG Max core) but don’t use them as much as I would like due to not being able to sharpen them with what I have.
