    If i’m working in the warm weather I use cutting oil. If its 32f or less I use a light spray oil.

    Plateau honing with a brush as a last step removes the sharp tips of the honing groves where the undesirable smearing happens at startup. Google plateau honing. That finish seems a little course..maybe its just the lighting.
