    Yes, it's fine. Strops don't have striations. when we say that we are aligning steel with a strop, what we should really be depicting is the steel aligned lengthwise down the edge. It's as if all the steel should be piled onto itself, like if you were to align sand in a straight, thin line. So any full stroke is effective.
