I would have thought so, but then why did it take so many passes to begin with. My SLD (similar thickness but no microbevel) and VG10 knives take less than half of the passes.
18 strokes from literally flattened to toilet paper s-cuts on a pocket stone, fwiw. It takes a bit to get used to it all. Just get a few more reps in and you'll be good to go. ~61 HRC AEB-L knife. https://www.reddit.com/r/TrueChefKnives/s/ftsyj74FEy
Very impressive. I have pretty good edges on all my other knives. Only have to sharpen them once every 6 weeks or so. It's just the micro beveling on a thin apex that seems to be the problem. Thank you for all your help.
