As a new straight razor user I am currently going through the process of learning how to strop. I am currently very bad at it and I have nicked my Herold 155Ri a few times on the top right hand side (as pictured). I have attempted to scissor down the nicks and try to avoid the area.
I'm just wondering whether cuts or nicks like these mean the strop will damage the edge or how serious a cut has to be to render a strop useless. Thanks for the help B&B!
