Thread: Zowada Website - double bevel info. updated

Stropping is a good point. I didn't evaluate long term stropping nor edge resiliance but I was surprised that razors honed like this draw equally on a strop to traditional methods. I've been studying draw phenomenon for a few years and found this interesting.

I've tried this double bevel stuff on about half a dozen razors lately, and I did notice an improvement in the shave-tests. I'm not sure I'll use this technique very often, but I think it is valid.

I think if a hanging strop is used, the slight deflection inherent to the stropping motion should be touching the second bevel, but maybe not with the same force as a traditional bevel.

Though, my experience has been positive using a double bevel and plain flat paddle strop, just put a little more pressure than usual (I'm using mostly big wedges and 1/4 hollows so that could be a variable too, as results may very for pressure with full hollows).
