Thread: paddle strop? confused to which side gets paste

I believe this paddles strop isn't intended to be pasted as the seude side acts as the linen/canvass and the leather side acts as the stropping finish. Yes, you can paste the suede side as advised. But, this paddle strop seems very nice as it is and it looks like something easy to travel with. Plus if you pasted the suede side, its too challenging to unpaste it.

You may want to consider buying another 4 sided leather paddle strop and applying different rated pastes on 1-4 sides. I have one of these and they keep my straight razors sharp for a very long time between stone honings.
