Loom Strops - your thoughts?
Hi folks.
I'm considering getting myself a loom strop, probably one of the ones from Maestro Livi but with just a SS handle - nothing flashy just functional.
Are they 'better' than a hanging strop, I mean is there any compelling reason why you'd choose one over a hanging strop, other than just for the sake of collecting different strops?
I have a Tony Miller strop, which has been great but has quite a few nicks in it from my early learning days. I've noticed that my hanging strop also seems to go a little 'shiny' in between uses, and I need to rub my hand back and forth on it to soften it up a little before taking a razor to it. I don't think it's drying out, maybe could be due to the humidity in the bathroom...
Any thoughts?
Cheers.
