    Until I get a finisher, my regimen has been a pyramid routine on Norton 4/8, followed by 5-10 passes on CrOx'd linen, then 100 passes on colored newsprint, and finally 30/60 linen/leather. That regimen has been giving me some wicked edges lately, which have led to buttery smooth shaves. Some variation of the above, minus the honing, keeps 'em shaving sharp for a while.
    There are many roads to sharp.
