Are these stropping pastes any good for razors?
I found the following compounds on this website:
Stropping Supplies
Veridian: A high concentration of Green Chromium Oxide cuts hard steels quickly creating a very fine edge
Titanium Gold: Yellow in color, this is a favorite of woodcarvers using moderately hard tools. We find it particularly useful as a first coat on new strops because it adheres very well providing a good base for other compounds
Herb's Yellowstone: Favored at Gary Rogowski's Northwest Woodworking Studio, this is a top pick for chisels and plane blades
White Gold: Recommended by noted author and woodcarving instructor Everett Ellenwood, this is an excellent choice for all carving tools.
Veritas Honing Compound: Top quality Chromium Oxide compound produced by the Canadian toolmaker Veritas.
My plan was to make a two-sided balsa strop for finishing up my razors and since I am ordering my 4/8k from here I figured I could just add some paste to get it over $75 and get free shipping.
