Thanked: 0Help me decide on a strop for travel
Hey guys.
I'm taking a trip soon and want to take my straight razor with me. I've seen paddle strops for sale on various sites, but they all seem to come with a paste already applied to one side, with leather on the other.
If my razor is sufficiently sharp for the trip, and all I need to do is a regular stropping each day, why would I need the paste on a travel paddle strop?
At home, I use my full size strop each day, the linen side first, then the leather. Seems like for travel paddle strops, there's no linen side (at least that I can tell), so I'd be missing that part for stropping.
Should I just get a cheaper hanging strop (leather and linen) for travel and forget the paddle?
Thanks!!
