This was my first sharpening of Zdp-189. The initial bevel setting wasn't quite as fast as I had first imagined, although it wasn't difficult. It reminded me of S30V, in terms response, to the 500 grit Beston. However, the polish it took afterwards, and the ease in which it got there, reminds of simpler steels, such as Aus8.
Once I get a few weeks in use, at work, I will do a follow up, I'll talk a bit about how Zdp-189 holds up, to my tasks. I have high hopes for this one.
Yes, I am still pronouncing the Imanishi stone incorrectly. :(
