lastly i am not sure are you using any tape? if yes take it out and even go to 1k level and then come back.

Well, I'm not into HAD yet, so for now, my set exists of
1 Wüsthof 3K/8K
1 Coticule

I'm putting on tape after the first round of honing, as the spine has quite some wear, and I want to prevent even more wear...

So my idea at the moment is (with tape):
-little more backhoning on 3K side
-re-establishing edge starting with 3K and then going to 8K, and make sure I get a good edge off the 8K (with a few test shaves that is) before I use the coticule to put the icing on the cake...
