I don't have a system for honing knives,
I just use my BBW as I was told by my grandfather and keep the stone still and drag my razor over it, spine leading strokes at a 40° angle +-
I get nice solid edges that hold up well
today I honed one of my Opinels with Sandvik inox steel on a tiny BBW and it was shaving arm hairs easily; I followed it up by a Herold red and black pasted strop and regular leather strop, stropped at a 40° as well
I never used pastes before, so this was a first test, the damn thing is passing the HHT like nobody's business, color me impressed by these pastes.
