If I have a 8k hone and a 12k hone (±), should I use both everytime my razor start to feel dull?

I think I would recommend trying a .5 diamond something or chromium oxide first for 10 strokes and then strop and test before going to the hone. The next recommendation would be 10 X strokes on the 12K, then the paste and then strop and test.

Ok, and when do I need the 8k?
(forgot to mention, the hones are a lithide and a swaty)
