Yoshida Hamono Bunka Black 190mm ZDP189 - Can you sharpen it with regular ceramic whetstones?

🎥 In this video I go over my "new to me" Yoshida Hamono ZDP-189 Bunka Black 190mm. This thing is a "grail" to me once I found out about it. I just had to have it, and now I do. I bought it used, but it's in GREAT condition. It's super hard steel that has a slow wear to it. I use non Diamond whetstones to set this thing up how I want it at first to prove that it can be done without Diamond stones... Did I succeed, or did I fail????
