So I decided to go ahead and just see how these work out on that boar strop.
cut it down to 2 and 1/8 in wide and polished up the backside to be used as a smooth strop.
Done a couple tries to get the feel for how to keep it level and cutting even but seems to work well. The burnishing seems more of a challenge, rubbing the newly cut edge with bars of steel, nagara, wood dowels, nothing really seems to have much impact maybe I'm not using enough Force but I'm wondering if there's a particular technique I should be using...
