    I think you've just described honing. That is, you set the shape during the bevel set. You sharpen it to make the apex of the edge properly narrow. Finally you smooth the bevel and the edge.

    In general, you will get a smoother finish with just a wet stone without slurry. I cannot think of a hone with which that is not the case.
