    Default 4" wide oil stone, how to hone?

    Hi,
    I have a 4" wide oil stone temporarily. And it is very smooth.(seems +6k I am not sure) Do I need to make circular/x pattern motion or should I make as flat as possible strokes while honing razors with no chips? Thanks.

    What's going on on the honing floor?
    I love this oilstone but I can't hone straight anymore
    Keep it cool, what's the name of this stroke?
    I can't remember but it's alright, a-alright

    Just hone, gonna be okay, da da doo-doo-mmm
    Just hone, spin that razor babe, da da doo-doo-mmm
    Just hone, gonna be okay, h-h-h-hone
    hone, hone, just, j-j-just hone
