how far off am i from getting this bevel set?
im using the chorsera 1k its flat and the sides have been chasemed.
i have hit the edge of the razor on the hone a few times by dropping the razor:banghead:
i have been doing 100 circles each side then 15 x strokes but not conventional x strokes i have been leading with the heel and going in a curve bringing the tip to meet back up with the heel at the end of my stroke.
i have seen people do this on you-tube. i am doing this instead of conventional x strokes because i find it difficult to keep the blade flat on the stone when doing x strokes, i always seem to catch the blade on the edge of the stone when performing the x stroke.
how much pressure should i be using on the x strokes? i have been not using much but i could go lighter if needed.
any input would be great thanks in advance guys
