Ya. Water stones, imo, demand quality.
However, you can get a hunting knife razor sharp using that crappy little grey stone that came with it, and some spit.
Waaay nicer using quality though.

I have a 1000 and a 4000 in fine water stones.
I have a decent strop. I have a decent steel.
Once the edge is on it, this is all I need.
Note, I also have some very coarse stones and some finer grits as well. I use them to either change the edge in a knife entirely, or you know? Get crazy sharp sometimes with a polished fine edge. Getting crazy sharp never lasts in the kitchen for long though. I’m talking my crazy, everyone thinks my knives are normally razors anyway and I rarely go higher than 4000 grit.

We used to make “Whore’s Martinis”.
Same as a regular one, you just hand pour over a single cube of ice and toss in an olive, onion, lemon, whatever. Stir with your finger and go. No straining, no stir stick, no measuring, one cube of ice.
Yes.
But I got better.
Stabbed to death in a knife fight in Seattle. Never happened, but so many have told me.
I have no idea where it comes from…It’s been decades.
Now, a few minutes before using the sauce, add a tablespoon of white vinegar.
2/3 Hot sauce
1/3 butter
Dash of garlic powder
Heat/warm on stovetop,
Good splash of white vinegar.
Good to go.
What’s the metrics?
I tried to convert everyone to signal, but know-betters with opinions decided “we just like it better”.
Never mind the ongoing data-rape by that app…. We ‘just’ likeitbetter.

As a Canadian, my next step is to worry about whether we, stupidly, elect the Russian asset known as PeePee up here during a Trump administration across the border.
This scenario would pretty much just turn all of N America into a facist continent. Corruption and corporate rule would create social chaos and upheaval.
Both our countries are on their last breaths as it is.
How’s this any different from that mattress, in a field, I drive past every day on the way to work? A bit cleaner, and sheets?
It’s the best of the best!
So, …it’s what the Canadian Tree Vampires crave!
You’d think they’d have considered that these past few months in relation to, …other user concerns.
Seconded!
Both statements.
