In my case, with the small paddle strop, it is a visual determination that determines the pressure. Given the concave surface, I have to add pressure so that the edge comes in contact with the stropping surface. If not, it visibly is not making contact.

Edit, much later: that said, it is a more lateral pass rather than it would be normally, so the pressure on a point-by-point rather than linear basis is not as durable.
