    There are a few options. One strop I have seen recently is a beginner bench strop from GemStar Customs. Gssixgun (as known on the forum) I'm sure would answer any questions you may have. Looks easy to learn on, and the price is great. I have not used, but I'm certain from reading others experiences with his products that it is very high quality and will fit the bill until you are ready for something more extravagant.

    If you want a hanging strop, Illinois 827, Star Custom are inexpensive quality options. Straight Razor Designs offers options of hanging strops, and also a modular paddle with a few different pieces included at a great price. I have a black latigo and a Roo strop from SRD, and both are great.

    Good luck!
