Thanked: 0Making your own strop
I am new to straight razor shaving. Actually, I am waiting for my first straight razor to be delivered. I have already recieved shaving cream, allum block, strop dressing and Dovo premium strop.
When I introduced myself to the forum, one of the pieces of advice was to practice on a cheap strop and perfect my stropping technique. I have been doing leather work for quite some time now. I believe I can make my own strop, but I am not sure of what kind of leather to use. My first inclination is to use premium saddle leather. Does anyone have any advice?
