    Newbie. Same question. Weiss razor, small, spike point. My 3" wide strop (shown red) is much wider than the overall length of my blade. The heel is square at the corner and is quite thick all the way down to the edge. Stropping it straight up and down as shown in the diagram, would I be stropping toe heavy? (ie lifting the heel end of the edge off the strop) Should I be keeping that thick squared heel hanging off the edge of the strop while stropping?
