I do realize that this is a bit like asking “what’s the best razor?”, but what strop should I start with for my imminent Moarteen Koraat?

All I know about strops is they come in leather, cotton, probably some other materials… and I seem to remember hearing denim works fine.

I’m in the USA, but buying from overseas isn’t out of the question.

Thanks!

    The best deal going, I think, is Duke City Strops on eBay. I’ve had a couple of them, but keep giving them away to people starting out.

      That’s two votes for Duke City. Sounds like a winner.

        Let me know if you have questions about stropping when it arrives.

          Thanks. I’m a visual learner so I’ll turn to YouTube when the time comes.
