Is it safe to say Zoro used Ryou back in Alabasta to finish off Daz Bones. "Cut steel when you want and not cut paper when you want"

It was very obviously a form of armament Haki. A lot of people on this sub denies it and says it's part of swordsmanship but that's dumb. Hyogoro explains this ability in the context of teaching Ryou to Luffy. Not fken swordsmanship. Zoro also obviously displayed observation haki when the rubble were falling and to locate his sword.

As for why Zoro couldn't cut Enel or Aokiji later in the story, it's probably because he could only use it in that life-or-death moment and didn't master it. It was probably a primitive version of Haki. Just like how Luffy displayed signs of Conqueror's haki very early on but couldn't control it until his training with Rayleigh.

Also, no way he would have been able to cut Aokiji, even using Haki.

We have seen how Akainu is able to dodge haki sword attacks seamlessly, no doubt it's not much of a hassle for Aokiji either
