Thanked: 33One piece of advice I would give is to try and avoid making your own strop at this point.
The GemStar was designed specifically for a beginner to try and help ease the learning curve.
Whippeddog.com also has a "poor mans" strop, so check that out too.
I understand being in a tight financial situation, but its totally worth it to spend a little extra up front than it is to dull or ruin your edge by using less than ideal materials - especially an edge you just paid to have sharpened.
Just my opinion. We all gotta go what we gotta do! Let us know how it goes.
