I wonder if this Japanese tannery (Shinki-Hikaku Co.) may be the source for Naomi-sans shell cordovan? I believe they have been in business since the early 1950's?

Pete, you can ask him to autograph your strop for you. Secondary side of the cordovan.
I was able to order an autographed 80K back when Jim was still selling the Kanoyama's.

It is great news that this Gentleman is well and still working on some of the finest strops the world has ever seen. I was given a bench strop of his during the holidays and I am using it daily....
