Thread: Understanding Fabric Stops with Paste/Spray

When I feel it is warranted, I plan to freshen up the edge between stone honing sessions using the wool, webbing, and pre-shave prep with the every-shave strop.

Thanks for all the feedback and guidance,

Great kit!

With a kit like this there is no reason to
explore the large and gritty "hone and hope"
universe (*).


*Stolen phrase...

Thanks niftyshaving. The Forum has been great getting info to help me make educated choices guided by lots of experience that I just don't have yet. SRD has yet to let me down with advice, customer service and being a great source of really good products...

As far as being 15 minutes away, it is a very dangerous temptation. To make matters worse, I pass very close (maybe 5 extra minutes) during my commute to work.

If we all lived within 15 minutes of the SRD shop, imagine the crowd there on weekends
