Had a go using a strop last night & managed to get my Opinel sharp enough to take some hairs off my arm. Haven't quite managed it with my home-made knife yet but at least I didn't make it blunt
I'm going bald, hurrah!

Ahh the joys of stropping! I rarely have any hair on my left arm due to making knives and restoring razors. Sometimes I even have to start using a leg to test them. Shorts can get embarassing with patches of hair missing! 
Don't worry I have lost all my arm hair to stropping even resorted to the hair on my chest so got bald patches there too.
The missus already knew I was mad but that just confirmed it.
