    Thank-you 32t.
    I will definitely try more pressure if it starts to get dull, because as you say - what could it hurt then at that point.
    Thank-you all for the help

    No problem, I think you hit the nail on the head there sir.
    Mastering implies there is nothing more for you to learn of something... I prefer proficient enough to not totally screw it up.

    I usually do 25 linen/50 leather for daily stropping. 30 linen/60 leather post sprays, pastes, and honing. Works well for me so far.
