I like smiles, I want smiles - miles of smiles.
All of mine tend to pick up a hint of a smile because I tend to use a rolling X stroke instead of just a plain X. You start with a little extra pressure toward the heel and sort of lift the blade up to guide pressure toward the toe as you progress through the stroke. focusing a little more pressure toward the heel and tow results in a smile curve on the blade.
