I decided to pick one of these up to have a different stop to experiment with but I am unclear about a few things:
1) Will the gold writing on the front and back have any detrimental effect when stropping over it?
2) Do I potentially use all the surfaces and why would I choose one particular side/texture over another?
3) Is there any particular break in procedure that I should use for the leather? Both sides the same?
Thanks for your help.
