First to address ordering razors from the US, I have ordered one before and was only dinged by customs for the sales tax. I have heard that they will sometimes not do this if the value is under 200 but that is just something I remember hearing. Like I said from my personal experience I think I paid 40 dollars on a 250 razor. With the Canadian dollar at par you may end up with a better bargain south of the border even if you end up paying customs.

As far as Fendrihan strops go I have a 3" latigo strop for them and absolutely love it. Good luck in your search.
