Has anyone ever successfully lessened the draw on a piece of leather?
I've got a latigo strop that causes a razor to stick like glue! It's a nicely made strop, and some people enjoy lots of draw, but it's just not for me. I'm looking into options, such as another piece of leather with a bit less draw for the same maker, or another strop altogether from another maker. I know a certain amount of draw can be added to a strop, but what about subtracted?
BTW, I have another strop from a ubiquitous supplier... Nice draw, but the leather quality, and quality of construction in general, is not up to snuff. But, we get what we pay for... at least in most circumstances.
