Thread: Mitchell Honestrop

Anyone have any info on these?

Antique "Mitchell Hone Strop" Wall Mount Display Rack 42 Straight Razor Straps | eBay

Buy it, Dennis! It would look swell on the barber shop wall. Any walls left?

Yep lol, its canvas strops though, if they were leather id be on em

Wow that came down in price. He wanted like $300 for it a few months ago.

Yeah id seen it a while back, hes been listing it for quite a long time best I can recall saw it a few years ago on there, dunno what the quality of them is though or id give it a shot

I've been watching these too, and while I want to take a gamble on them, something keeps me from placing a bid.

Honestly at 150 bucks shipped thats a bit over 3 dollars a strop, and I figured if they were good I could give them to my customers that buy razors, if they were leather id pay triple that but they are not so I keep passing, hate gambling lol.

May be you could get one to test it and if it works well enough get the rest. Sounds like nobody is buying them, so the seller may be open to selling you just one first if that could lead to a sale on the rest.

Also if you don't want the hanger the shipping may be significantly less.

Excellent idea Dennis! I remember looking at those as well, and like CastSteel, something just kept me from bidding on them...probably that I didn't need all those strops no matter what the price. But potentially handing them out to customers that buy razors...supreme idea....good thinking, gold star beside your name today!
