    Goodmorning,

    I've never noticed any difference in pull along a stone but that sounds like a good plan.

    Knowing what a 4K can do is probably something that takes practice but I think that is a good plan too. I'd say for me I look more for a smooth bevel on the 4K, do a thumbnail test, and then press to 8k. If 8k doesn't work I do a few pyramids and then back to 8k, or just a couple of 4K. Just don't push the 4k or rather the edge against the 4k, too far for the edge to handle. A bad bevel is horrible to try and polish/sharpen.
