I'm certainly in no position to criticize, but everything I've seen/read/heard says that you never ever ever have the edge facing the stone. Is that advice just for newbies?
Good form is really important, but for experienced honers it is not a problem.
I can bet you anything that whatever the stroke looks like the edge will not get damaged in anyway when Glen is honing it.
