Thanked: 0Honing patern
This is probably a stupid question but remember I am new. Anyway, I am wondering why when honing the razor on a stone you don't use the same stroke as on a strop (not as fast of course)? That is, why isn't the razor laid flat on the hone at a 90 degree angle, and pushed away from the body and then pulled back? As opposed to what I think I understand, which is the razor being pushed at a 45% angle (still flat on the stone). By the way, I haven't done this.
