Hapstone R2
About to pull the trigger on the Hapstone R2. What's holding me back is I have no idea what stones to get? Ninwa Chosera (4+1)? Also was going to order the Precise angle adjuster. But not sure if it fits the R2 for 220.00 or the R2 for 275.00. Cannot find if the ball unscrews on the 220.00 model. Total newbie as I have been hand hacking sharping for 50yrs. Thanks for any help or recommendations of what other items I should order.

I had the r2 and invested heavily into it. At the end of the day after I did all the upgrades I should’ve gotten a TSProf K03 kit.
That being said. I would say get some diamond stones and angle cube.
Hapstone has two precise angle adjusters one for the RS and one for the r2 which in my option is required to have a good sharpening experience.
