    Be generous with the fabric softener guys!
    I left mine to soak for about 10 minutes first, but that was not enough.
    Another 20-30 minutes and it was perfect for my prefs
    Good luck

    Love the suede on my #3. It gets use. I utilize the linen part of my TM strop from time to time as I do the Latigo, but if I had to choose one strop, The Kanayama will get the nod.

    I also love the suede second component it's such a joy to use and man what a wonderful noise and feedback you get from the suede, but I'm no fan of the third linen component so I've use my Naniwa lapping stone and given It about 100 passes It's certainly soften the linen up, but I will also try Birnando's method of fabric softener.
