    Default Is My Strop FUBAR?

    For your consideration I have attached some pictures of my Tony Miller Travel strop. It's been my sole strop all this time, and a trusty companion. It has taken the brunt of my learning curve unfortunately. Recently while stropping a blade with an annoyingly lose pivot pin I gashed the leather pretty bad. I've taken the ol' pumice to the strop once or twice already, but now I'm at a loss, this damage seems quite extreme to me.
    I'm getting better, but it was rough learning the proper technique. At least one that doesn't chisel leather every shave.
