Home crafted strop - 3rd try
Hey everyone, hope you aren't getting sick of me posting my attempts at strop making! Here is my 3rd. It is 2-5/8"W x 22"L, very smooth cowhide, brown tanned.
I notched out much better for the swivel than I did on the last one, and added a 3rd rivet for stability. I also played with an edge beveler I picked up, and an edge slicker, but I wasn't impressed with the results.
Judge for yourselves. Also, I angled the corners, which I think adds a lot to the finished look.
