Across these threads I've seen it mentioned cutting paper as a test, and also that paper should not be used as a test.
I am wondering what the specific reasoning against it is.
My guess is that the tough fibers or materials in the paper will blunt the edge, or perhaps stick in the edge, but is this anything worse than what hair does, or anything that couldn't be remedied with regular stropping?
