    What you will find is that every natural stone has its own character. I encourage you to experiment. Pick a blade with an edge you put on using your current technique. Once you get the nagura set, take it from bevel set up through a progression and see what you think. Then go back to the beginning and change it up. Think of all the permutations you can. This will help you decide which method works for you and your particular stone set...
    He saw a lawyer killing a viper on a dunghill hard by his own stable; And the Devil smiled, for it put him in mind of Cain and his brother Abel.
