Josh Earl has a post in it are 2 links Lynns tips 1 and Lynns tips 2. In the link Lynns tips 1 he makes mention while doin an 4k/8k pyramid he strops and test shave with each rotation. I just started using this advice and I swear that the stropping inbetween each rotation is helping me achieve a much sharper edge than I was previously getting. Im not very experienced in honing. I thought the stropping was done in between rotations for the purpose of polishing the edge for the test shave. Is the stropping in between rotations truely helping me achieve a better edge or am I just improving with my honing.
