+1 on strops getting nicked up. The way I see it, there's two options available for this. You can buy a newbie strop to learn on. I'd recommend a Fromm strop off Amazon (~30-35USD), but the RupRazor Filly (20USD) is also a decent strop for learning on, and cheap with it too. Alternatively, you can buy one of Tony Miller's beautiful Artisan strops (Latigo or Horsehide) for about double this cost (~65-70USD), and he'll sell you a practice strop, suitable for learning on, for a mere additional $7.50.
If you've got the money to spend, I'd personally recommend going with option two - that way, once you've learnt to strop properly, you don't have to shell out more money to upgrade from your nicked-to-all-buggery learner strop to a premium strop, as it's all there, ready and waiting for you to be able to use it properly.
Hope that I've helped you somehow, and welcome to the community.Last edited by mosley59; 10-22-2009 at 06:24 AM.
