Ok I have a 4/8 K Norton and a Doroko hanging strop (used a little), I’m thinking to complete this starters set up I need a paddle from Tony.
What should I go for?
A 2 sided one? A four sided one? And what pastes too?
Im thinking of getting a four sided one with the 3 different pastes he offers, a safe bet for my situation, or no?
Cheers

I'd go for a two-sided paddle or bench hone, and save the extra money for one of Tony's wonderful hanging strops, which you are sure to covet someday...
I use two-sided paddles with 1 micron diamond paste on one side and chromium oxide on the other. Coming off the Norton, you don't need anything coarser than that. And the chromium puts a nice polish on the edge...

I'm with Josh 100%. :tu
What surfaces will you get are what you should be thinking about.

cheers guys, it looks set then,
all about the wide then yea?
+3 to what Josh said.
I have a 4 sided paddle (only 2 are pasted...for now) from Tony. It rocks!

I just got my 4-sider from Tony this last weekend. It awesome. It has all three sides pastes with 3, 1, and .5 micron. It put an awesome edge on my razor.

Ask Tony. Yes, he is in business to make money. We all are. No, he won't steer you wrong.
