I think we can all agree that coticules vary in speed, hardness, garnet size, etc. Some are great finishers, and some are better suited for bevel sets and midrange work. So thinking along the lines of Tomo Naguras, how important are the slurry stones we use? I know we'll get the answer "as long as the slurry stone is harder than the host stone...", and that makes sense-but then you're at the mercy of the host stone (which may or may not be a good thing). So can you alter the performance of a host stone by using slurry stones with different characteristics?
I asked this question when I first started out and was laughed at, but after playing around with these things for a couple years I think it's worth another look.
For what it's worth-in my opinion, the answer is YES.
