I just re-read the thread to see how you "stripped" the line. I think I understand it so my only question is how available is the Dai-Riki? Is it generally in Wal-Mart or should I convince my...

Can't you just hear the Darth Vader quote coming? "When I left you I was but a learner, now I am the master" :rolleyes:

Yeah, I knew that, but still..it's not nice to throw a little smackdown on your bad self :D

Hey gang, I've looked through the last few posts and I think I'm guilty of :HJ a little so, I apologize and will do what I can to keep it back on the track of the HHT discussion

I'll have to go to the colloquism thread to translate this I think :roflmao

Justin, et al:

Before and after stropping I check the edge by holding the blade gently with the edge point up. I take a moistened thumb pad (not the nail, that is a different test) and GENTLY run...

I do the same thing (thumb test) and it's working quite well. I just tried to shave some arm hair as mine is very, very fine. I noticed I've never been able to cut them until I tried using the...
