Review (3/5): More fashion than form!
I bought these specifically for the width, that way when I strop my blade, I could simply go in straight strokes back and forth. Unfortunately, there is a slight curvature from one side edge to the other making an even blade stropping with straight passes impossible. I find that I am back to doing crisscross patterns, which I could have continued to do with my narrow strop. At least they are very attractive looking and so, do not look out of sorts on the counter or hanging from the wall.
