Should You Strop Your Knife?

[@toml.8210]

I trop my disposable razor on my jeans. I get up to 10 more shaves from it.

Im not big on stropping it seems to dull my blades rather than sharpen buy hay thats just me....

My strop is 4 bits of an old leather flatbelt I found in the trash, epoxied to to a board, with black, red, and white polishing compound applied to 3 of them, with the 3rd raw. All with the rough side of the leather up. I can get an axe to shaving sharp with that thing.

,,very good video my friend,,, now i will wet strop @ times,, leather & carving tools,, a sharpening steel for butcher knifes,, but that is just me,,, now the grit on the strop is what i`m looking for,, wet & grit is what pulls the wire edge off the metal,,it becomes a polished edge,, interesting subject thanks for sharing,,
