I have to give a big shout out to M Martinez for the two paddle strops he sent me. They are some kind of high density foam on balsa and coated with some purple stuff on one and I am not sure on the other which is marked buff. I used the one labeled 1 with the purple stuff on a razor I was ready to send for honing due to pulling while shaving for 12 laps, then the one that said buff 12 laps followed on very soft fabric he also sent, then 30 on leather. WOW it was a close, really close shave my face felt sticky. It felt like the razor did when it had just come back from gssixgun. This thing is amazing hopefully M Martinez will chime in with more info.
