You have been so reading my mail lol!!!

When I began, I really was into knowing how sharp my blade was lol. It was seemingly always dull! I lived with it. Probably because at the time I focused so much on HHT's and hones. Stropping was just something one did lol. "I simply didn't have a clue" lol. It took me forever to get half decent at stropping (and a few strops to boot). It took me even longer to see the real value in it!!

Now I couldn't care about any tests other than the shaving test, and stropping has become Key lol!
