Heres what I do:

I strop before every shave, in fact while the water is warming for my shower.

10 or so laps on the linen with ash if my last shave with this razor was less than perfect.

30-60 laps on the leather.

Then Shave.

If the shave sucks I stop and give it three laps on my Swaty lubricated with lather. This hone lives near the sink.

Resume shave.

If the shave still sucks or sucks worse (my hone is finicky) I give it another three laps on the Swaty.

Resume shave.

Repeat last step if the razor is improving but not yet perfect.

If this isn't improving the shave it is time for a real honing.

I start here if the razor isn't shaving at all.

I use the following:

1000 grit wet/dry sandpaper on glass for bevel setting or nick removal if needed.

I pyramid 5 micron film on glass with 1 micron film on glass for the bulk of the work. The number of laps is entirely up to the razor.

Then I shave

If the shave sucks....
