It's the most recomendable to get the ultimate sharp. But If you have a good deburing technique and your finishing stone it's around the 3k or 5k grit it is not completely necessary because the burr will be removed right on the stone.
If a knife can’t cleanly slice newsprint straight off of a # 80 stone then you need to practice more. If it won’t cleanly push cut newsprint off of a # 1000 stone then the same applies. Stopping is absolutely unnecessary and is most often used to coverup poor sharpening techniques and results. It can be done if you wish, of course; but it does more damage to the apex than anything as it rounds the apex. Any perceived increase in sharpness is short lived and is rapidly overshadowed by a huge decrease in edge retention. Burrs are unnecessary and not required to get brilliant results. Look for “burrless sharpening methods” or similar to learn how, there’s numerous ways to avoid burr formation at all. There’s sharpeners, like myself, who never form burrs and get the apex to 0.1 - 0.05μ as standard.
very good technique!
