I've been watching YouTube, and some honemeisters there use two hands to hone. To me it looks more comfortable and more stable. I haven't honed anything yet, but when I placed my blade on a balsa hone with some paste, it was much easier to control it with two hands than with one.

I've seen the videos with others honing with one hand, and it looks a lot harder.

Is there a preferred method, or is it just a matter of what's more comfortable for you? IOW, does one method do a better job than another?

Thanks.
