I've been putting weight on my strop to maintain its flatness, and was wondering if this is a good idea for a prolonged period of time. I've had a very heavy atlas with a toolbox on top sitting on my strop (I wrapped the strop in a rag first so nothing would happen to the surface) for almost a week now. I currently have all 3 of my razors out for honing, so I have no use for the strop right now, so I'm just leaving it under all that weight....

Does anybody see any problem with leaving a lot of weight on a strop for this long (or longer)? If not, I'm just going to keep it on the strop until I need it, you can't get it too flat right??? (I hope not!)
