I can already achieve a decent edge on my blade. But what I want to talk about here is getting a super smooth edge on my blade.

Here's my set up. A Japanese 1k/6k combo, a Norton 4k/8k combo, a 6k Belgian blue, and a 12k Chinese stone. I set my bevel and then do a modified pyramid. I also use 3 pieces of electrical tape due to hone wear. It's an antique store find.

And like I said, I can get a decent edge on my blade, i.e., I can shave with only slight irritation afterwords. But on my first WTG pass, I'm getting some pulling. And everyone knows that's none too comfortable.

If anyone has any tips on getting a super smooth edge I'd really like your help.
