Guys,

I'm still at the beginner level with my honeing but are occassionaly getting good results so here it comes:

When changing from the 4 to the 8k what is the best way to stop grit contamination? At the moment I'm rinsing in water and carefully wiping with toilet paper Is it ok to do this or am I at risk of dulling the edge

I could't get a norton over here so I have a king brand japanese water hone. Cuts sooooo sloooow.
