This is some good advice.
If you're not sure how far you can take your 8k yet you can keep honing until you don't notice any improvement. Just do 20 or 30 laps a night and then strop until it stops getting better. You don't NEED pastes yet, and honestly at this point they'd just be adding one more variable to an already difficult task.
Once you can do that, add some Crox and you'll likely see an immediate and beneficial improvement. If you use pastes too early, you can't really tell if your honing is improving or if the crox is just smoothing out an imperfect edge.
Just my 2 cents.
Let us know how it goes!Through the mud and the blood, to the green fields beyond.

hone and shave test. If not up to par then give it another go, you will soon get to know what works for your face.
