Thanked: 2259Stropping?
I've been stropping for a few weeks now, and I believe my technique is getting worse rather than better.
I have trouble flipping the razor on the spine.
Should my thumb be alternating between the flats of the tang, or from the spine of the tang to the bottom, or from top jimps to bottom jimps?
I seem to be more comfortable with my thumb going from one side (where the name stampings and such are) of the tang to the other...
Is there a right way and a wrong way, or whatever is most comfortable to each individual?? I've watched youtube videos, and I see both methods in use, but as long as I'm still in the learning phase I might as well learn the more correct way.
