    Well forget engineering and scientific specifics and go with barely any pressure.

    You only use .00000314 psi pressure for circular honing! Get it!!? I use a little pressure when my strop is flat and taut and no pressure when I add deflection or purposely lift the spin. I think an expert thinks about different stropping strategies and imagines, at least, some differences. I've always thought I could strop for a touch better smoothness if I desired to.

    Either way, gentle patience usually pays-off, pressure can bite you back.
