Seems I need a strop for sharpening up my razor. I already have a nice Dovo strop for everyday stropping, but I heard someone say that the quality of a pasting strop isn't really that important. I'm quite the animal lover, so I had preferred to get one of the Tony Miller vegan strops, but he said they tended not to be porous enough to use abrasives. Since that seems to be a dead end, used sounds like a good idea, for the ethics as well as the wallet.
I've never used Ebay, but here are some bids I was looking at. Good deal or scam? Any advice is appreciated!
