    I had a junker blade that was dull as a spoon, just to practice stropping. It can still damage the strop but not like a shave ready can. Once you get it down, try a good shave ready. I used to then strop like 30 laps hht test, 30 more hht test just to verify I wasn't rolling it. It did help me in the early days. When I did 60 laps with no drop off in hht, then I knew I had it. Nobody is born with stropping skills, so in a year if you use it daily for 60 laps, that's how many laps? Over 20 THOUSAND laps. So by then you will be an ace!
