    I keep thinking a color or pattern will remind of what is enclosed....Just a few so far!

    Thanks guys. I might still pick up another one or two but I think I have more than I need already. The Filled Fire-hose is coming along nicely. I picked up the leather to put on the bottom of the strops but hope to get them installed tomorrow.

    Right now I like the SRD Buffalo leather the best. Well, that's not counting the Kanayama. Its quality and will always be a favorite! And for the secondary, I've only used the Scrupleworks Flax Linen a couple times. It very thin and flexible but its starting to work it way to the top of the list for secondary strops. Otherwise, the SRD Premium cotton webbing it the top right now.

    Vintage Shell would be nice to find. But when I look for used/vintage strops, I'm afraid of getting taken. Its happened twice before. The leather was not even close to be usable on them.

    The one with the cr0x (Green) is Wool Felt. I tried using it clean and just could see it doing anything at all, so I coated it. But thanks for the offer.
