Water on a dry stone?
I just got through doing 10 laps on my Spyderco UF to touch up my first razor after a week's use. It seemed to help a bit, although I wouldn't say it brought the razor back to where it was when I got it. (Maybe I need to do more laps, but I didn't want to risk over-honing.) Here's my question: the stone is designed to be used dry, but I've found it easier on other wet/dry hones to use water because the surface tension helps me keep the whole blade in contact with the hone. I noticed with the Spidey that this was a bit tricky. Will it change the performance of the stone if I put some water on it? What should I expect?
