    I learned on a 15 year old belt with an Imperial razor.My first buy was an SRD modular paddle strop and a Dovo best quality razor.The key is,go slow and pay attention,and above all have fun with this.You are about to do something that most men would not dare to try.

    P.S. The thing is I never damaged the old belt.So I had no qualms about spending $90 dollars on that modular paddle as my first purchase.

    Interesting thread - different views - I am new to straight razors and stropping and took the view to buy quality and learn by doing it slowly. That is just me - I find with quality "tools" and being careful and deliberate I develop my skill level quicker. That said my first strop was purchased from SRD - their Roo - and I love it.
