When bevel setting do you stay on one side for multiple strokes or alternate each stroke?
When bevel setting do you stay on one side for multiple strokes or alternate each stroke?
Five hundred strokes seems excessive to me.
Is alternating each stroke on a 1K bevel setting or just honing -- one Youtube honer says 40 reps each side using small circular strokes, then standard X honing alternating each stroke. Sound correct?
Or does bevel setting mean alternating each stroke as in honing, but with more pressure?
Thx.
Then honing stones 3K, 6K, 8K & 12K.
Hunter has stones between the 1k and 8k, he just didn't mention them in the post #26.You SHOULD have something to bridge the gap between 1k and 8k.
