I nicked my strop pretty good, is there anyway to repair it?

If you’re slicing up your strops regularly you might get better results from the balsa hones.

Firstly they’re a bit more robust, and secondly they’re easier to repair if you do take a chunk out of them. The problem with repairing leather strops isn’t the carved out divot, it’s the raised seam around it that then throws your honing angles out!

Just a thought.
