Stropping on a narrow strop
Hello
I have a new strop coming to me and it is a 2" wide. A question I have for those of you that use narrow strops, do you start your X pattern with the heal on the strop or the toe on the strop. I am assuming it is a personal preference thing but was just curious if anyone had a reasoning behind it.
If this should be in the strop forum would a mod please move it...thanks..

This is a great string...
So I understand (conceptually) that I would use this X pattern with a 2 inch strope, but what about a 3 inch strope. Does this same technique still apply?
BTW, I want to let everyone know that is this a great string. It's extremely helpful for me (hopefully others) to hear about the different tips & tricks.
honedright - I don't know where you got that diagram but I appreciate you posting it. I have been over-thinking the X pattern and you helped put that to rest.
