Did some sharpening tonight and hit my Tony Miller No. 2 Horsehide, which I’ve taken to calling my Tonyama strop.
Some here have mentioned liking his Rough Out model. Looking at the back of the Tonyama, the finish is rough, but smooth. So gave the razor some passes on the backside first, then finished on the front. The front side is very fast and slick with minimal draw. So the rougher draw on the back nicely compliments the front.
So, those with this model, or other similar strops with a good quality finish on the backside, give it a try.
The edge turned out quite sharp.
