Stropping question or two.
I have one of the Lee Valley strops, I have one side loaded up with their honing compound and left the other side plain, now a couple questions:
What angle?
How much pressure?
How do you get the whole blade, especially the tip done when the blade is twice as wide as the strop?
Is it wise to leave one side just the plain leather?
As usual, thanks for the help.
