First time I properly stropped a knife

I properly stropped a knife after sharpening and it shaved hair off my arm, I felt like I'd unlocked a life skill nobody thought to teach me in school.

One proper strop and suddenly your knife isn’t just sharp, it’s terrifyingly impressive

Once you get the hang of stropping, it changes how you look at every dull knife at home. Suddenly, you're fixing kitchen knives for the family like some kind of edge specialist.

Yeah that first clean strop where everything just glides sharp is weirdly satisfying and addictive.
