Is there any consensus for the highest quality stropping compounds? The "good stuff" so to speak, not harbor freight, etc
 
I only have a bias to HA because I used their products for a long time. Ken Schwartz is a man obsessed though, his quality stsndards are far beyond most other products.
 
DMT's 1, 3, and 6 Micron diamond paste is fairly good too. Its oil based and gets kinda sticky after a little use but works well. I don't think I would pick it over some of the other choices but it is a lot cheaper which is appealing to some.

compared to stones, stropping compounds aren't much at all. I was thinking of just getting the 1 micron HA diamond spray, unless a combination or additional finer micron ones work better.
