    Default got my strop today!!

    I went over to the post office today and got my strop. All i can say is wow it is nice it is a star shaving english bridle. I have also found out the smell of sandal wood has grown on me due to the fr3e soap they included and also the shaving cream from mensbiz the put in my last purchase so will be buying some shortly.
    Im so excited to be able to have another shave now.

    yeh it is a good price and you can replace what needs to be when damaged.

    I have a Big Daddy chestnut bridle great strop, but make sure you break it in first, hopefully you got the sheet on how to do this with it, once broken in it is a treat.
    Note I have no other strop to compare to so others may have different opinions. Good luck with it
    Saved,
    to shave another day.

    Adaml, you'll like that strop, 3" width is very convenient for straights and the 21" working area (28" OA) is great for the price !!
    I like my Big Daddy
    I bought this (ebay) on 30th May and it arrived on 18th June which isn't so bad
    considering it has to come to Australia.
