Change the stone up or down one step for 20 stokes
Switch to a natural

Try slurry
Try no slurry
Try a different stroke
Try pressure
Try stropping
But try something different, right after you stop, and walk away for a coffee or a drink

Thanks. Good advice

It did receive quite the variety of hones this afternoon, but I guess I probably should have given it a rest, and then started fresh after a while.
Then I might have even understood how I reached my good bevel eventually.
