Looks like a cool strop. What kind is it and where did you get it?

wat size is ur strop?

Quick question: I keep hearing that the strop needs to be super tightly pulled, which you do not seem to be doing. Or am I wrong about just how tight the strop has to be? I've been putting the strop on a table just to be sure...

that can be used as an assassination weapon too :D
as it's been in the past, i think

Pro-tip: In this era of heavy feminism, be sure that when doing anything ultra-masculine such as straight razor shaving, to balance out by wearing your ultra-feminine World of Warcraft level 5 mage robe.

Leather stropping pulls a sharply honed edge out. It makes for a better shave.

A few observations. First, how much pressure are you using, or is it done just by the feel of the strip against the blade? Also, are you looking for a change on the blade, or are you just counting a certain amount of strokes on each side? Otherwise, you have an excellent video of proper technique. Thank you.

I hate to be a negative nancy, but it looks like the strop sans handle is a great way to cut the bejesus out of yourself

@Rancor16 well, if that seems a bit too perilous for your liking, there are safer alternatives available from Gillette and Norelco!

Your movements are too fast to be educational. If that's what you're going for.

Nah...I was pretty much just sharing the way I do it.
It's a Kintaka horsehide strop.
