Having been DE shaving for 18 months, I decided to give SE shaving a go. I've been stalling for a few months, though, because the strop I have is a gift - a 2 inch wide basic item bought on Amazon (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Leather-Strop-Handle-Sharpening-Straight/dp/B005M571SW). I'm reluctant to start stropping my new Dovo on it, for fear of ruining the blade, and so have not even attempted my first shave. Should I wait until I can get a decent strop (say, from Westholme Razor Strops) or is it OK to experiment with a cheap strop and use a better one when my skills are improved?
