You've got to be an idiot ...
I mean, how is it possible to nick a strop? There's lots of advice here saying 'Buy a cheap strop first 'cos you're bound to nick it' but you're always moving the razor with the blade pointing away from the direction of travel, so you've got to be doing something seriously wrong to nick it. You've got to be really careless or stupid or ... ah! That's how you nick a strop. Damn. What an idiot! Glad I bought a cheap one.

It's very easy to do when you're new at it, especially if you're going too fast. The razor gets flipped over before the change in direction happens. Nobody's perfect the first time at something, this could even happen to an experienced stropper who is in a hurry or distracted, either way it's a quick way to ruin your day, (and your strop)!

I just switched to a modular paddle strop from a hanging strop made my life a lot easier...
