Received my strop from Tony today and was quite
pleased. But I swear, I was way more scared at
my first stropping attempt than I was shaving.

I went very slow, leading with the heel. I know the the
spine never lifte during any of the passes but the edge
did lift off slightly a couple of times. I did use light
pressure, only using enough to keep the razor flat.

I did 20 round trips on the linen and 30 on the leather.
I hope I didn't mess the edge up. I would hate to send
it back to Lynn to be honed.

I will find out in the morning. Plan on getting up earlier
than normal to test it out. I can't wait all week. I
swear this is an addiction.


Regards,

Terry
