You cant realistically sharpen serrated knives. Having a sharp straight edge knife is quite easy

You cant use them to chop stuff hitting the board. I have used ceramic knives - they are cool but they indeed chip.

Same advice - don't use the soaking stones. Nowadays they are plenty of decent quality diamond stones (or ceramic ones)

One note on high quality and carbon Japanese knives - they are way harder to sharpen, also usually come with 17 degrees apex. Higher HRC would retain the sharp edge for longer, of course - but again much harder (literally) to sharp them.

The blade must be sharpen regardless, the apex won't stay sharp on its right own. The vibration does help but it doesn't do any actual cutting if you dull the blade.

I use the 300 only if the knives are too dull or I want to change the apex to 20 degrees. Honing them back is just the 1200 and a strop. Like mentioned I can shave with that. 3000 is overkill imo, unless you are looking for the mirror finis

I'd very strongly recommend vs the waterstone. Use a ceramic or diamond one. The strop is not required but it's nice. Sharpening knives is quite the therapeutic process, at least it was for me when I learned to do them. Now I can

Of course, still need to sharpen, though.

3000/8000 is a bad one. Both are way way way too fine. I'd very much like anything similar to 300/1200 + strop or so. I can shave with that. Also I'd not use a soaking whetsone {anymore} (my spouse resents them for being

That's bit much - (unfortunately) the codebase uses at least 4 different json libraries (perhaps 5 if I consider one non-general purpose, personally written). gson is generally very popular as well. The blog post mentions BigDecimal an
