when I see this palm stropping in the video, I remembered an old barber which my grandfather took me for hair cut. In Turkey it has been normally forbidden to use straight razors in public barbers for sanitary reasons since maybe 60's or 70's. But there was one old barber who used straight razors for his friends, I still remember his strops hanging on the wall. He was doing this hand stropping to make us little kids laugh.. but he was making this palm stropping faster than the barber in the video, and we were looking at his hand . Sometimes he kept one of his fingers yelling ooo it cut offf.... oldies goldies..
