Thread: Need help

If that other side of the paddle is leather without paste, or other stuff on it, you would use green side, linen side, leather. If you have any kind of edge on those razors you were talking about, I bet you could get them nice and sharp. Of course, I suppose it depends on what kind of time and interest in that sort of thing you have on your hands. Sounds like you have a pretty good set up for keeping your razors sharp going though. Maybe get one of the honemeisters to start you out right, then practice with your paddle and strop.

Thanks for the help. I do use strop dressing on the leather side, or am I suppose to leave it dry?
