Okay. I've been having this problem for a couple weeks. I can get a knife to push cut with the grain, but not across the grain anymore.
Thought it was just an off day at first but after trying a few things even going back to the original method I used at first of using a King 1k then 6k, then micro beveling on a spyderco uf.
Nothing has worked. I've rewatched Cliff's original videos that showed me how, and tried to replicated it just like I used to, but now it ain't working.
I've checked to make sure that the paper isn't the issue because I still have one blade that will do it, that isn't a straight razor. Checked stone flatness, going so far as to flatten and clean completely stones before I use them. Backed off on force to as little as I can control. Pulled out the loupes to check the edge.
The one thing I have noticed is slicing aggression is slightly less then normal.
So anyone got any ideas to check. Because I am confused as heck here.
