    Default Tony #1 Heirloom

    I managed to restrain myself for 6 weeks, using the free starter strop to learn proper stropping (proper meaning not slicing the strop).
    But I finally used my 3" wide honey brown #1 heirloom.

    The starter strop is a good strop and it gave good results, so I almost started thinking: 'maybe I should've bought a cheaper TM'

    What a difference...

    The feeling is totally different. I would almost say: stropping on velvet.
    I am still convinced that the starter strop suffices, but the #1 is truly a work of art.
    Til shade is gone, til water is gone, Into the shadow with teeth bared, screaming defiance with the last breath.
    To spit in Sightblinder’s eye on the Last Day

    Yeah, I am going to have to get me one of those some time. I have a #3 honey brown. It is a good strop, but I learned on it, and I nicked it up a bit . Some day, when I have some more money to blow on this, I will get another strop, but for now the #3 works well.
