For sharpening an already sharp edge
I have a number of bench oilstones accumulated over 40 years & used in sharpening with a South African guided Warthog system. I did have a medium 6" Arkansas but always wanted the transluscent Arkansas. Some 6 years ago I started using an Edge Pro (EP) type guided sharpener & started looking for additional stones. I found a US supplier for an EP black Ark but wouldn't ship to South Africa. Then I found Amazon listing all kinds of EP stones incl black & transluscent Arks. When I ordered the transluscent Ark was out of stock so I ordered the black- same grit 8000 although I'd always coveted the transluscent. I find an edge needs plenty work before using the Ark depending on the edge. A sharpened edge with a 1000 grit stone needs to be prepared with 3000 & 5000 grit stones prior to using the 8000 grit Ark. Between stones & flipping over the knife I use an electronic cube angle finder for a consistent bevel angle & get a smooth mirror finish on the bevel I also sharpen hair stylist & pet grooming shears & the black Ark really produces scary sharp edges. I'm more than happy with the black Ark & can recommend it to give that extra bite on an already sharp edge.
