Its a hard question. Are we talking about touchups, restoration, bevel repair? In some cases I might use just the coticule and in other the Escher. Sometimes the Norton 4K. With some razors I've used every stone I have (about 9) not to mention pasted strops and bench strops. If you accumulate enough razors you'll find different razors like different hones and respond better with certain combinations.

Sparks, Nevada Police report last night Homer La Fong Died while shaving with his straight razor. His wife reported he was using his Iwasaki Razor and while shaving his neck it just seemed to have a mind of its own and came to life and cut his throat. Subsequent investigation revealed the razor belonged to Toshiro Kawasaki a WWll Kamakazee pilot who was killed when his plane slammed into the USS Yorktown. His last act was to shave with that razor. It is suspected the razor is haunted.
