    The problem with stropping is that anyone can do it, but doing it well takes some learning. It's a little like straight shaving in that anyone can pick up a sharp straight razor and attempt to shave with it. We've all read the results of that being done, but not being done well. At least strops don't bleed when they're nicked.
