Update: I got the other hone. One is a 2-line and the other is a 3-line. Are you sure you don't have that backwards? The 3-line (the one I was talking about in the original post) is so coarse, it might just replace 1500-grit sandpaper for establishing a bevel. The 2-line is a lot finer; one could conceivably shave off it (though the Gem & Lithide hones are both finer still).
