Can we talk about sharpening stones versus pull-through sharpeners for knives?
I used a cheap pull-through for years until a cook in Nashville let me use his Shapton 1000 grit stone, and the edge was just a different world. Anyone got a good stone they'd recommend for a busy line cook?

I read a piece in Cook's Illustrated that basically said pull-throughs ruin knife geometry over time. They tested a bunch of stones and kept coming back to the Naniwa Chosera 800 grit for a solid all-around edge. It cuts fast and leaves a nice finish.

Did they mention how long the Naniwa stone lasts before it needs flattening?
