    I'll send him a message. Looking for a paddle for travel and a new hanging strop as I am just getting into how to do it . My oh my you should see my Dovo strop! I now have about 4 inches of small cuts that have all come together at the bottom blade side. Not too deep but as a newbie not sure if this will harm the edge. I think it's because the strop needs to be longer so I get more of a stroke before I'm worrying about turning the blade. What I haven't seen is a wider paddle strop with a travelling case. Any ideas? I read on a post here about using a camera lens to check the edge and it looks like a tree saw. I think I need to learn about pasted strops to give a smoother edge. My full hollow feels really rough.

    Neil has honed and rescaled and repined two of my razors and honed my wapi, he made an amazing job of all 3, they seem to get sharper the more i use them.
    thanks Neil

    This seems to be an off-the-cuff generalization. I suspect some ebay strops may be worthless, but in viewing Mr. Miller's items, I dare say they look solid.
