i added another leather side to my knives plus strop block. right now im looking for a good compound to add to my system. i am using all spyderco ceramic benchstones: medium, fine, ultrafine. then i strop on the strop block's green compound. I need a suggestion for a compound on the new second side of my strop block. i was thinking of a hand american .5 micron diamond spray to be used as a last step. what about DMT pastes?

thanks in advance! :thumbup:
 
I think you should put some white compound on there instead. The knivesplus strop's paste is more fine than most chromium oxide I've used so I do not think you'll need the diamond spray. Plus that stuff is just plain expensive. The white compound is finer than the ultra fine stones so after stropping with the knivesplus strop you should have a very nice mirror polish.
 
thanks. i ordered two one ounce bars of white compound. i also ordered 1 micron and .5 micron DMT pastes, and i am going to make my own little strop
