    Default Movember 2022 Strop Socks - 2nd flight

    Nobody seems to want the 4 strop sock set. Let's try a flight of 2 socks this time. You win, I send pics of fabrics, you pick, I make, and mail. This one will run till midnight Friday the 11th.

    Some folks only have one or 2 really great strops, and these socks are perfect for those pieces of delicate leather.
    Bump on this terrific offer gents.

    Mike is correct, so let me change this offer. Based on Cudarunner's contribution of $20 for one strop sock I'll put forth the following. A donation of $20 gets one sock, and a donation of $35 gets two socks, and a donation of $50 gets three socks. This is open-ended till the end of the month, at midnight PST. Come one, come many.

    Please remember, I will pay Conus postage, and 50% of the postage cost for everywhere else (times are tight.)

    I am thinking that any leather hanging strop out there is an absolute candidate for a sock.
    These things are an important part of our routines. Vintage strops are especially important to protect.
    They ain't making any more?

    Just as in most of our more contemporary QUALITY strops, the numbers keep declining as Artisans Are peaking.
    Any strop you have and use will benefit by long life and more excellent, clean function.

    It's not a question. It's a wonder.
    I wonder why has your strop no sock?
    A sock for every strop. A chicken in every pot!

    Get them while they are hot! It's for Movember. All men should be healthy!!

    Randy, I think $60 for the four is equitable. If that is alright email me with your color choices and strop measurements and I'll send you pics of fabrics.
