Now granted a belt about 1.25 inches in width max is no substitute for a 2-3 inch strop. And I have no intention on using that as a cheap substitute for a strop. :) But what I could do is, after practicing my flip technique (it's not too hard for me to do using the method in Lynn's stropping video), I may even take my shavette with a blade that has seen 2 shaves (ive been discarding my blades after 2 shaves) and practice stropping on that belt with the blade still in it.
Again, while it is not like stropping a SR on a 3" wide strop, I am guessing this will help with my draw and flip technique so I can minimize strop dings.
Just a random, harebrained idea here... :P
