Being a quaility maker, Tony Miller I am sure uses bends or double shoulders for his strops. I am sure he also uses # 1 as well and hand selects as well. This is also the material I use in my strops. However in this case with new guys trying to learn to strop the first time I choose to use a number 3 Belly. My thoughts are they will get nicked, cut and abused every way you can imagine. The cost from # 1 bend to a #3 belly is about 4 to 5 times. Bellies are also soft and uneven due to the stretch marks and scares. So to answer your question I would put my edges on a flat 6 oz / 9 oz single bend or double shoulder.
Randy is bringing in razors for the stropping area to be used on the strops mentioned above so no one will have to use their own on them.
