hey guys! i have looked everywhere for an answer and have got absolutely ZERO consistency, so i will ask here...
i have a strop with one full canvas strap and one heavy-duty leather strap (two sides each, naturally). right now they are just bare...do i use compound? if so what colors? which sides? mind you i will be using this to finish my custom blades not to sharpen a straight razor...i can get, and keep a hair-popping edge but i still want to know if there is a better way...what combos do use that work best for you?
