I seem to have some correlation between better shaves from thinner ground razors used with glassier hides (and conversely thicker razors I can get a better sharpness on that first few strokes with a slower strop), but I'd caution from assigning this as positive correlation to hide/grind; more likely, for this one administrator simply best to get the most out each it is easier for me to interpret the extra hollow's precise alignment of blade 'fin' as perpendicular to spine as possible when the friction coefficient is the least. There can be no question that the capacity to provide that maximum alignment is well within the capabilities of each strop, I just can't seem to find that sweet spot using an extra hollow on a thick, 'quiet' strop. Stropping is mostly about feel/feedback between user/blade/hide.
That was really neat. I got the headphones in. Thanks from Texas!
Niice! Thank you for sharing Jarrod!
No love for the Roo? 😏💈
Great video and nice collection of strops but could you explain the reason why you would need a faster or slower strop for what type of metals

Very informative...... specially for a newbie like me! ;-)
