What is the practical difference, from the point of view of sharpening chisels, say? Any? I noticed a feller on the Woodsmith shop used Aluminum Oxide before he went to Silicon Carbinde on the finer grits.
Thank you, Bill

The practical difference is that it's hard to find anything but aluminum oxide in coarse grits and anything but silicon carbide in fine grits.
