Sigma: "Sintered under heat and pressure, the resulting stone readily releases new, aggressive particles during use."
The only Sigma I've tried is the 1K, which is great for making rough, toothy edges on knives, but I'd never put a razor on it.
Your quoted text may explain why I found it better to use it dampened, as a flooded surface tended to cause micro-chipping due to particles being released. At the time, I used it after a 1.2k Sigma and 6k Sigma progression. Only the 13k introduced micro-chipping, but once I used it dampened, it worked very well. The 1.2k Sigma worked well as a bevel-setter. Very quick.
