    Default Oh what a lucky boy

    Today was like Xmas all over again when my Kanayama 85k and 3" Tony Miller arrived today. However they will remain unused until I'm confident I won't mess them up!

    Congratulations, you recieved two very nice strops. Enjoy and it is a good idea to wait until you feel confident
    to use them. Keep us posted. Hopefully you have a practice strop.

    the kanayama is a good strop, tried it but to expensive for me, have 2 TM that I'm very happy with. I also used a practice strop in the beginning, glad I did ;-)

    Yes the Kanayama was ridiculously expensive, especially when I has to pay $100 on top in import duty to UK!

    Need to get used to the barber cut style as well.

    I think it may be a few months before I pluck up courage to use it!
