Honemaister strop and paste opinions please!!!
OK, I am seeking the advice of group experience. I want to add Crox and Diamond Spray or Paste. I am looking for a lot of advice.
First Crox is obvious, but do you recommend .25 Diamond only or also .5 Diamond for three options?. Would you recommend three or just two?
Next, Diamond Paste versus Spray recommendations?
Finally, I have a great Medal of Award strop in near mint condition. Both sides of the Linen and Leather are in fantastic shape. Would it be preferable to leave my precious Medal of Award and use paddle strops?
The Strop gives me two identical Linen sides along with Coarse and Fine Leather surfaces. Would you recommend using this or Paddle Strops for the firmer surface.
I can make any size strop paddles using blue jeans instead of Linen and / or Thick Tooling Leather.
So, is it Crox on Coarse leather, .25 Diamond Fine leather? Both on Linen Strop (or Cotton Jeans) and no .5 Diamond? Paddles or Strop? (maybe Felt, but it would be harder to get good inexpensive Felt) :thinking:
Go ahead, mix, match. give me your best recommendations.
