Thanked: 2can you reduce the draw?
I have a whipped dog poly/ leather strop. As of now all of my stropping is done on my bathroom counter as I am still afraid of hanging it up and not maintaining an even blade to strop angle. What I have found is that I really prefer the zero draw of the poly to the draw of the leather, which to me seems negligible as well. I am wondering if there is a way to reduce the draw on a leather strop?
Also, and it is probably preference, how long are peoples strop stokes? I am experimenting with longer and shorter strokes. Obviously find it easier to manage the blade on the shorter laps, but does a shorter lap mean more of them?
thanks!
