This does kinda confirm something I've been thinking for a while. I know we all say "Dont put too much pressure on the strop or you'll roll the edge", but I think we all put on more pressure than we actually think we do.

When I get home tonight I'm going to pull my strop to its usual taughtness and then I'm going to put weights on it until it sags by the amount that it usually does when I strop. I'll post the results up and see exactly how much weight I'm putting on when I do strop..!

EDIT: Well done for getting your stropping down as well! This is one of the most important things to learn and its great that you are happy with the results! It just goes to show how much of a difference good stropping makes..!
