First and foremost thanks everyone for all the help on this site.

Anyways I have a strop I bought on amazon. Its by no means high quality but it works. At least I've been shaving off of several edges that get stropped on it.

Here's the question. What is the benefit of a nicer/better strop? Keener edge? Less strokes to arrive at shaving edge?

Hope to get some good insight so I can justify ditching my current strop for a fancy one.
