I'd then posit you haven't actually raised a burr.

Do you want a shit knife or two to fuck up?

You sharpening at angle of main “v” angle of knife or the secondary bevel which makes the cutting edge?

How much time have you spent on it? Really effective sharpening takes much longer than most people think. I'm a beginner and it takes me hours, not minutes. It's very satisfying when the burr develops.

On a related note, does anyone else have a problem feeling for burrs when sharpening? I sharpen with a 1k stone and cannot feel a thing - regardless of which side I've been sharpening on, both sides of the edge feel the same to me when running my finger over it..
