This was very helpful. Thank you.
So - in short
More laps on the strop is better than fewer laps - with correct form.
CrOx improves the edge.
Linen is better than webbing (with or without CrOx).
Is that right? I do strop my razors on a CrOx pasted jute strop and it works awesome, but I only do it as a touch up when stopping on the leather doesn't seem to be doing as good a job. When CrOx doesn't get it, I go to the Swaty barber hone. After that, it's in for proper honing.
I used to strop freshly honed razors on the CrOx strop, but stopped after reading a few things on this forum. Now it's just touch ups.
