After some laps on the 8k, the side of the razor that doesn't have the double bevel looks nice and smooth. It's almost blackish? I think that side polished up nicely. The other side has much more visible scratching, etc. My current guess is that the 2x bevel side is getting close, but still doesn't have a consistent bevel. It's almost as if the stone is right now hitting the spot where they meet, so it can't polish most of the edge. I feel like it could be 10 laps or 100 laps, but eventually (and probably suddenly) it'll become one. At least across most the blade.
