Thread: Pasted Strops a rough guide

That should work perfectly well chm. If you are going by my system the 3000 stone would just take the place of the dovo green paste.

You do need a finisher post 3k. At 3k your edge is not going to be that straight, the 10k would work but the 12k Super Stone may be a better choice, it is very aggressive and can make that jump easily. Reviews on that 1/3k stone are not great and may be an issue as it may be too aggressive for razors, causing chipping at finish.

If you go from 3k to paste, you may also have an issue with a chipping edge. You probably need at least an 8k edge to get a straight chip free edge.

Do be sure to lap your stones if you are using them to hone knives and axes.

This was an interesting read. Thanks for resurrecting it.
