    The purpose of slurry is to help the stone cut faster but it comes at the price of eventually rounding the edge...which is why most people now use a slurry to start and then finish with only water. If you just keep grinding away with slurry you will dull the edge rather than sharpen it.

    I don't use slurry on my finishing stones.
