    Strop with the pattern that saves the strop and to heck with the Xs, Ys, Zs, or whatevers. You want to strop the whole edge and if your strop is narrower than the razor you need to come up with some way to pull the heel to tip of the razor across the width of the strop while pulling and pushing the razor along the length of the strop. And what works the best for you without damaging the strop is the proper stroke. It's a simple as that.

    Good stropping - good shaving,
