    Just saw a honing on a kamisori by Iwasaki Mr. something or another on you tube. Video was a little over 2 min and he didn't do the ( x and 1 ) technique. He did a rolling x with the same number of strokes on each side.
    Thank you,

    Yeah that's what it looks like but his stroke on the stamped side is shortened so in effect more honing happens on the non stamped side. Don't for one minute think you can mimic him if you haven't done it before. Best to stick to a formula that does less work on the stamped side.
