Duke City Strop:100 % high quality hand crafted

When we shave with our straight razors, the edge gets taken out of alignment. Stropping between shaves realigns that edge to keep it keen and helps extend the time between honing. This is a 3″ wide high-quality handcrafted vegetable-tanned cowhide strop in deep blue color. It has a generous total length of 25″ including the hardware. The leather belts are 21″ long. The strop has a 2 component backing belt that offers a choice of polypro webbing and 100% cotton. Since some people prefer synthetic backing and others prefer natural cotton, I decided to add both to my strops and give the user a choice. This veg tan full grain leather is a thick 8-9 oz cut from the shoulder area of the hide. It is an excellent quality piece of vegetable-tanned leather! The leather is slightly firm but flexes and bends fairly easily. After fully broken in it will have a medium range draw. Since this is a hobby & passion I love, I am making & selling these strops at only a minimal markup over my cost of makingand selling them. I am pricing the strops at half the cost of similar quality ones on the market. I wanted to give people who enjoy straight razor shaving an opportunity to purchase a top-of-the-line strop for a fair, affordable & reasonable price. I make these beautiful old-school hanging strops by hand in the “Duke City” Albuquerque New Mexico. They are made with the highest quality leather and hardware. If cared for and used properly, these strops are made to easily last a lifetime. The very low-priced strops you see online are made with what is called genuine leather. It is just a marketing term used to make people think they are getting something good. The bottom layer of the hide is the weakest and lowest-grade leather. It is considered junk leather in the industry and to the leather craftsmen. This weak low-grade bottom layer of the hide is sold to places that process it and sell it as “genuine leather.” Just something to think about when purchasing a strop or any leather product. I only purchase full or top-grain high quality leather from reputable suppliers & tanneries. The strop you receive may not be the exact one shown, but it will be similar because it was cut from the same hide. There may be small cosmetic imperfections like blemishes, scars, & minor scratches. This is perfectly normal with leather. Any small imperfections are merely cosmetic, and just add a touch of character. I make sure every strop is an excellent surface to strop a straight razor or knife. I include 2 hooks for hanging and using the strop. One hook to hang the strop, and a second hook you can use to hold the top leather belt when accessing the poly part of the backing belt. To access the cotton part of the backing, you simply rotate the strop over with the swivel. This listing is for the deep blue full grain vegetable-tanned cowhideleather. If you would like to see other strops available, please see my listings for those options.
