Plus 1 on the Barbers Hone. If you only want to touch up an edge, this is a good way to keep one in good shape for a good long while. It is also small and hand held, can be kept with your razors, and doesn't take up much room. I have many.....

Great for travel to keep the razor sharp and can be used successfully (with a little practice) in place of a strop. Especially a decent one like an Achonite, Panama, or a good Swatty
