Good day chaps.

In between honing to refresh an edge most of us like to use cr ox or some type of paste to bring out the best in our razors.
My question is does anyone completely do away with pastes and just break out the Gokumyo or other high grit finisher instead? I tend to use a paddle strop with cr ox because its quick and easy, and only use my Gokumyo when the razor needs maintenance honing (10-15 laps 10k Superstone , 20 laps 20k Gokumyo.) I'm going to experiment with this and see how it goes, just wanted to get some feedback if anyone's tried it?
