On the 8K, two layers of tape, I did about 30 strokes with firm pressure, and then 40 strokes with lighter pressure (replacing tape first). In both cases, no finger pressure on the heel or toe, as I did on previous hone. Instead I did two things. First, I used heel forward so that the stria is at an angle, instead of perpendicular to the edge, so that I can see the change in marks. Second, I tried rolling the blade, with more weight on heel and then on toe (with a very slight lift at the end of the stroke to try to catch the toe better. Checked with inking that I was getting coverage on one pass.
Here are high rez shots (heel to toe, toe to heel):

Here are shots at lower resolution, so that you can see the whole edge better (I missed the middle on one side):

Finally, here are three shots of the edge, head on, at ends and middle (all at high resolution):
