    Can anyone comment on this?

    Thanks!
    There are more important things to worry about. Just practice stropping with a dull- or plastic knife until you feel confident your strokes are light, spine keeps in contact the strop and your can flip a blade without twisting yout wrist back and forth.

    (5/10 after every shave; 25/60 before. MMoo)
