Welcome.
The Wiki has a lot of information on pastes, strops and hones.
For me: started with an SRD-honed straight, SRD strop daily, CrOx smeared on balsa wood every couple of weeks and a barbers hone every 6 weeks or so when I feel the CrOx is not getting me where I want to be.
This has worked for me for over a Year without the need to send the straights back to Lynn for a touch up.
