AutoStropper

Hi,
i was wondering if anybody here own's and uses an 'easy' or 'auto' strop for it's straight razor...i look on the interwebs but couldn't seem to find a picture. It's an apparatus of some sorts with a 'blade holder' in wich one could slide in his straight razor and a leather strap wich goes 'through' the apparatus and comes out the other side...one could then proceed by taking both ends of leather in each hand and pulling in one direction and then the other as if you were flossing...The system then tilts the blade against the leather strop one way and then the other when pulling the other side..
i'll try and take pics when i get home from work later today cause my explanation might seem like i'm talking out of my ass

this being the contraption mentioned above:

I have one but have never tried it ,bought it back when I started straight shaving a couple years back and have forgot about it . Maybe it's time to give it a go!

Maybe one of those would help me to not nick my strop.

Looks interesting. Although I like the exercise of stropping, an auto stropper sounds novel.

My whole point was finding out if anybody used them or had used them and what their experiences with this strop were

It vaguely reminds me of a mechanical stropper I have for DE blades, but I've never even seen a picture of a straight stopper before. I don't know how useful it would be, but it's definitely interesting!

My father used to go to a barbershop that used one - he reckons the shaves were OK.
