dirty hands and "sticky" strop
So, with my job, my hands are dirty, and they aren't going to be clean after a shower or until sometime in november, I'm worried about pre conditioning my strop before a stropping with hands that have dirt and charcoal on them, any suggestions for alternatives?
Also, I've noticed that it feels like my strop has some sticky spots, where the draw gets really heavy and then light. I feel like I have a nice light pressure and stroke going so not sure if its me or the strop still needing to be broken in with some hand grease or maybe a drop of neatsfoot?
thanks folks!
