You should ask WF, they can look at them and advise you better.
 
Seems to me that the first stone is quite deep at 62.7% and is probably why there's some leakage under the table (and gets an HCA of 3.5ish). However, to figure out if that's significant enough when compared to the other stone, you'd have to ask for WF's recommendation.
 
Both stones are AGSL Ideal and should perform but if it were me...the .83, I like the shallow cut better
