Also, I'm using a TI two-sided paddle strop. I'm thinking in investing in a hanging strop (Illinois) -- the paddle strop seems "short" to me. I'm using TI paste sparingly on one-side before finishing -- 25 to 30 strokes each side after each pyramid. I'm trying to be very, very focused on my technique during honing and stropping (keeping blade flat and even -- little pressure -- x-pattern strokes -- rolling properly at end of the stroke).
Just wondering why not one of Tony's, I thought the prices were very comparable and Tony's are nicer? Almost any strop should do fine and yeah having a hanging strop may make stropping a lot more easier.
