Thread: Factory new Dovo set bevel or half a pyramid

I would set the bevel as was said here. Just do it! You wont have to do it again anytime soon. One other issue is you have to "wear" your honing stroke into the blade. If its honed heel leading and you use straight laps, then you will have different hone exposure to the edge.

Is it ok to set bevel using straight strokes and not x-strokes I fell as though I have more control with straight versus x
