Herold 23071 Russia Type Leather Strope & Canvas Size 40 X 400 Mm

Description

Strop for straighting the edge of straight razors, with eyelet for hanging. Size 400 x 40 mm Russia leather is a particularly high-quality leather and this quality is getting transferred to the razor blade so the blade is brought back into a straight position for a new perfect shave. Application - Hang the strap at the height of your belly linking the tiny holding ring to a solid hook. While stropping, pull the strap taut, slightly down towards the hook (i.e. upwards to your hand) horizontal towards your body, the leather side up. The razor edge is always laid completely flat on the strap so that the shank and the handle draw a line and show exactly (at a 90° angle) sidewards. When changing the direction, the blade should be rolled over on the spine and than stropped again towards your body, i.e. with the edge always trailing!
