    Salut cousin, bienvenue.
    In fact I don't know if you speak french too. The odds are higher in Québec than in Satchasomewhere I guess.
    If you usually speak french or like to practise it, you can also visit the french equivalent forum, "le 3C ou Coupe-chou Club". The advices are the same, but of course the french production has the preference. There is also a lot of members here who are members of the 3C.

    I was just curious about how much the strop quality makes a difference.
    I have some home-made strops with balsa wood and green compound. Not super flat nor long but the first criteria is fixable.
    I also have a small (~4in ) paddle strop, with one loaded and one smooth side.

    Are those good enough, or is the investment in a good strop going to be felt at shave time?
