    Default Nicked Strop Repair

    I was being careless today and nicked my new SRD English Bridal IV strop! A pretty good nick, triangular shaped and about 1/4 inch wide by 1/4 inch long on the side of the strop. So, I got some contact cement, put some on each side of the nicked flap. Let it dry for about 10 minutes, then closed the flap. I then rolled a bottle over it about 10 times with pressure. Fixed! You can't even see or feel the nick. Sorry I didn't take any before, during, after shots. I will next time, and there WILL be a next time I assure you!

    Moral of the story: Nicking your strop is really not a big deal and is easily repairable.

    I was giddy about stropping my new shipment of razors today! And yes I've been bragging about these beauties all day!
