Thanked: 0first strop recommendation?
Hi guys - I'm new here, have my first razor on its way, and I'm wondering about strops. Would anyone have a recommendation for a good first strop?
I actually have Kanoyama cordovan strop already, but is the length of a sharpening stone and is on a wooden block - meant for kitchen knives, which is why I have it. Not sure of the 'grit'. If I'm allowed to post links here, I could. (Sold by Japanese Natural Stones) ... Anyway, I'm not sure if this is what a razor stropper would want or not.
(Name note: I see these are often called 'Kanayama' but believe actually that 'Kanoyama' is correct. An old thread here shows the maker's shop and that's the actual name on the door.)Last edited by Asteger; 08-01-2013 at 10:15 PM.
