I've been pretty happy with the travel set-up I've been using for the past three months, ranging from restoring razors with visible chips to daily stropping with the occasional touch-up: 6" x 2" DMT coarse whetstone (lapping); 6" x 2" DMT fine whetstone (visible chips, very rare slurry generation); 135mm x 40mm Suehiro 1k/3k synth combo (bevel-setting double whammy); no. 6 BBW/coticule natural combo ("nouvelle veine"); 130mm x 35mm AJ Welsh purple slate; 200mm x 40mm Herold red-pasted, scored balsa/oiled Russian leather paddle strop.
So right now, I'm not really using anything else.
