    As Bob said, finding someone who does not tape and has 10 years experience will be difficult.

    I only know of one and he is no longer a member.

    Taping started as a recommendation for newbs just starting to hone. The idea being to prevent excess wear on the spine. Few of us ever went back to no tape. Two or more layers of tape is used to hone blades with difficult geometry.

    I would start watching gssixgun's videos on honing. These vids are the best place to start your education.
    Use the search box in the upper right corner to find these.

    We don't know where you live; there may be a honer near you. Put your town in the avatar. I would guess Amsterdam but there is more than one.
