I have a Star Shaving strop I bought as my first decent strop. I've since acquired a TM and others, but would still like to use this strop.
Problem is, I sliced the approximate middle of the strop early on with poor technique(went to flip and do a return stroke; razor did not flip, lol).

I repaired the cut with CA, and sanded down to 400. Strop is flexible, and the super glue is not hard , the strop feels nice and soft when I run my hand over it, but I can still feel the dip. There are no hard edges, nothing flapping about, and it is a dip, not a ridge. But I can feel it as the razor passes over it. I stropped one of my blades with it, and though I can feel it, there doesn't seem to have been any detrimental effects from passing over that with the edge of the blade.
But that is one single stropping session(about 20-30 laps).
Has anyone tried using a strop like this? Do any of you have any idea whether or not this area should be of concern?
I have about 10 inches of clear leather that I can still use on this strop, but I would dearly love to be able to ignore this injury and strop on.
Advice/opinions, please.
