    You could just strop while driving. Multitask and save time. LOL

    Others have used it in the past and compared it to Linen.

    Personlly I think my linen strop is firmer than corduroy would be. Unless you doubled and glued it to itself with contact cement, or overlayed something else as a backing.

    May your lather be moist and slick, the sweep of your razor sure, and your edge always keen!

    A good candidate would probably be tin cloth or the brown duck material they call it now!
