Which of these stones do you recommend I use?

Hey All,

I'm going to try honing my newly arrived Dovo Envogue, and just wanted your recommendations on which stones to use. I come from Japanese knife sharpening, and have plenty of experience with some hrc 63+ honyaki single bevel knives.

My stones include Shapton GlassStone 1K, 2K, 4K, Beston 500, Bester 1200, Naniwa Chosera 3000, Arashiyama 8K, and a Chosera 10k.

What progression do you recommend? Similarly what would you recommend to hone a Dovo Bismark?

Thanks!

Is this a new blade?

I bought it used from another user but it doesn't seem very sharp. I tried shaving some hairs on my arm and it wasn't very effective.
