I've seen naniwa 12k mentioned on several youtube videos. It seems to be the standard for maintaining a straight razor.
@Dick peck mentioned it should be enough for me to hone a straight razor on a 12k water stone every month if I just wanted to maintain it and shaved with it everyday.
I have a few questions.

I have a few questions.
- Shall I start with naniwa 12k water stone for straight razor maintenance?
- If I didn't shave with a straight razor everyday, how do I know when I should hone a straight razor?
- What about DMT diamond bar used for honing various blades?
