    Before we start lamenting the demise of the poor little seal ........ note that "Imported Shell" is embossed under the image of the seal at the top of the strop. Last time I looked shell was defined as horsehide. So whether the 'sealskin' is marketing hype or the real deal is questionable AFAIC. Cool strop though, dubl duck didn't put their name on anything that wasn't first quality and this strop is no exception.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Genuine seal skin strop, hear the razor bark, never feel the bite. NEW try our strop dressing made from real seal fat! (Baby seals were mercilessly clubbed in the making of this product.)

    It would appear that if nothing else it is at least a great conversation piece to have around...

    Maybe they only use juvenile delinquent seals for strop making. That would be nice.
