Wow, that is hands down the coolest looking strop I have ever seen. I suppose if your stroke runs too far towards the handle, the cobra will let you know.

Really, really cool. Great shading, and I love how you have left space between them but filled it in with the little stars and dots...
In regards to the grip on the razor, etc, yes, of course, each to their own. I don't think very many hold their razor with as loose a grip as I do; with only one finger on top of the tang... :D
