I got hold of a strip of nylon webbing & decided to try it as a "linen" strop. All I can say is...wow. It's more aggressive and, dare I say, more effective than my vintage linen. After 50 laps, the edge feels unbelievably sticky & grabby, & shaves superbly. Anyone else ever try this? Attached is a close-up of the weave. I'd love to hear if anyone else has had similar results.
