I am really convinced that the key is to make sure you have a proper bevel set and then really most of the honing regiments will fall into place with decent results. Some stones are more consistent...

I normally like to spray a film of water on the 12K before using it to hone and after it quits drinking. I find it works best this way. Normally 10 very light or no pressure X strokes is all you need.
