Hi,

I'm finding the whole stropping thing quite hard to get the hang of. Watching the various videos linked from the site I often see comments such as 'too much wrist action' (ooer missus) however and that the 'flip' in stropping is performed with the thumb and forefinger- I just find this very difficult as I lose control of the razor very quickly where as if I flip it with my wrist, as it were, I keep control of the razor for much longer. Is this in correct is there a reason that I shouldn't use my wrist to fip the razor or is this purely a fatigue consideration ie you can't strop for as long a time if you use your wrist or is there something I'm missing that leads me to lose control of the razor?
