Thank you fellas. Can or could someone recommend a good strop for me? I don't need the best of the best but I also don't want the bottom of the barrel either.

The SRD Strop is nice. There are cheaper and more expensive, but I doubt that any are better for the price point.

Which one from SRD would you recommend? I've read so many reviews and articles, actually so much to the point where my heads about to explode haha.

I am assuming that you are looking at the mid-range strops. 3" for sure. The rest depends on the draw that you like. Latigo has a little more draw than English Bridle Leather. I don't know about the higher end strop classifications.

Most people buy the 3". If your other strop was 2" you may like that better, since you are used to doing the x-stroke. It's just a personal preference thing. Either on will work just fine.
