    Nessmuck,

    A double sided paddle would be good for you

    Either the SRD modular paddle, or a double sided paddle from Mr Neil Miller (www.strop-shop.co.uk).

    I have quite a few of Neils stops; his workmanship is superb as is the quality of his materials - most recommended

    Have fun !

    best regards

    Russ

    http://straightrazorpalace.com/strop...ar-paddle.html indeed, if you can afford it. Otherwise, a balsa one might be a cheap alternative, cf Easily make a pasted balsa strop - Straight Razor Place Wiki.

    +1 for the modular paddle for the most versatility. It includes the diamond spray but I would also go for the chrom-ox crayon that is on the same page as the strop IIRC. An alternative, if you prefer a hanging strop, is the SRD hanging felt. I have one of these and you can paste both sides with different abrasives.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.
