Hello all,
I have now purchased a Loom strop with a view to using it to strop my SE blades (especially the Heljestrand and Wilkinson Sword wedge blades).
This is the strop http://www.shaving-shack.com/dual-leather-hand-strop.html.
My question is do I need anything further or can I just strop away on leather side? I do have some Dovo strop balm, but I use this to maintain the leather rather than affect the sharpening of the blade (if that makes sense).
If anyone can provide some assistance / pointers etc I'd be most grateful. Thanks
Jon
