Spyderco experience

I hit my dull razor on a pair of Spyderco fine triangle rods, 12 laps. I put oil on the rods. The first shave was not good. Second shave was not good.

The third shave was a-ok.

For those that do not know, Sharpmaker has a holder that presents the rods like a narrow bench hone. I used both fine rods.

I strop on leather 25 laps before shaving, and 25 after. I guess that the leather finally did its work.
 
I thought it might help the edge to use oil. I stopped sharpen when the oil started darkening. I am confident that oil is not going to damage the stone.

But it might affect its sharpening abilities. Ceramics generally are meant to be used dry.
