I run into the following YouTube video.
He recommends not more than 20 strokes on hanging strop , claiming that excessive stropping makes edge duller, bringing/quoting some evidence ( observations under electronic microscope) . He also advises not to use any strop pastes, since it turns hanging strop into bad ( not cmpletely flat) hone.
On my opinion, it makes some sense, at least for hanging strop.
What do you think?
