    Thanks for the responses, I'm actually looking at some now on ebay that I may get.

    I've been wondering if it might be possible to make a handle for it to hold the blade so I could strop it like a straight razor on my regular strops. Guess once I get one and see what the blades are like I may try to make something so I don't have to always use the small strop in the case as I have some pasted strops (.5 micron chrome ox and 1x linen with dovo white paste) that I will probably want to use.

    I thought maybe replacing the leather component and hone inside with different stropping materials. Say one that could come out and flip over (like I saw in the classifieds) one with good stropping material like latigo, one horsehide pasted and something like having them both backed with cotton weave, perhaps one with white paste and one without.

    I have shaptons that I was planning on using to hone it, so the little hone in the case wouldn't really be needed.

    Anyone removed the guards on their blades?
