    Isn't it the same idea as the device SRD sells?

    I checked it out and found it odd that they only offered the tops for the stropbox, but not the stropbox. They also don't seem to offer the Little Stropper, which is also supposed to be part of their namesake.

    I'm an SRD fan, truthfully. I'll stay with what I know.

    I actually use Williams Shaving Soap, It does a good job for me, and doesn't break the bank. I get it for about $1.95 a brick.
    I also use Old Spice cologne for that eye-watering face-slapping post shave astringent.
    But, I'm a pretty basic guy. Being as shaving has been described as a "barbaric custom" by a nefarious acquaintance of mine, I enjoy a barbaric shave (I surmise).
    I really wish I could accomplish a good, basic shave like the video that Willy posted. Bare bones, get the job done and get some
    kissy-face-huggy-bod from the wife or girlfriend. That boy can flat shave it off!! Talk about mowing the lawn!

    Anyway, I too noticed that the Stropbox and Lttle Stropper were absent from his website.
