Richard, I posted my video and THEN read your comment. There is not a whole lot of "worthwhile" in there but I'm leaving it anyway!

I would not bother counting strokes. You have to keep honing till you have the bevel fully set. It might take a hundred strokes and it might take five hundred. The sharp edge is all that matters....

You NEVER need to raise a burr when honing a straight razor. If you create a burr you did it wrong.
