Rule #1 I highly recommend you don't hang your strop over the toilet. ;-)

This vid helped me . . .
Gentlemen:
I find hi_bu_gl's stropping video superb. He explains. He demonstrates. He teaches. Most often this is the one stropping video I recommend for newbies to watch.
Well done, Sham.
Regards,
Obie

i am a complete newb here, so take this comment with a grain of salt. however, it seems that in the video here the gentleman is adamant about the grip he uses. that's fair enough. but it seems like this other stropping video by afdavis below uses a grip somewhat like the one being spoken against. is this just preference, am i seeing the grip wrong, or some other explanation?

Hello, idkid:
Those two videos focus on two different types of strops. One is a hanging strop and the other a paddle strop. Both are excellent videos done by pros.

Hi Obie,
I want to make sure I'm following you correctly. Are you saying stroppers should use different grips depending on the type of strop? or should the grip be the same regardless? My original question was more focused on the grip while stropping, which I thought seemed a bit different between the two gents. Any thoughts?
