    Default new barbers strop

    Hi all
    Im having a new 3.25" barbers strop delivered tomorrow. 1 is a canvas that looks a bit course on the photo and the other is leather.
    heres the plan with the leather. Rub it with over with a thick glass. put some lather on it then when dried rub that in with heel of hand and more rubbing with the glass. does that sound about right?

    Any tips for the canvas strop as a prep thing?

    cheers

    Anthony

    Have a look at the Wiki section, particularly this article:
    Strop treatment and repair - Straight Razor Place Wiki

    Have fun with the new tool!
