    Also, because there are some among us who will want to know (Carl, I'm looking at you!), what kind of soap did you use to lather your slippery slope? And was it slippery enough for you? Try more water, maybe...

    And just think you still have the brush bug, strop bug and the hone bug too contend with... And you thought you would be saving money in the (very) long run... lol

    Hehe, thanks for all of the replies. Yes, my seatbelt is buckled, and I even have a helmet on for this one! I did indeed order a strop from them as well. I got the 3" latigo with premium fabric. I don't plan on using that particular strop until I become proficient at *not* cutting them though. My "poor mans" strop will have to endure until that point. Oh, and I'm pretty sure the slope is thickly lathered with Bald Frog.

    Limit yourself to 25 or 30 straights and you should be fine. Tell the wife I told you so.

    You need to consider a quote from our my holy book: "Nothing exceeds like excess."
