    Default No more 2.5" synth strops? (Attn: Miller)

    I'm looking to get a 2.5" synthetic, but only see 3" ones at the well-shaved gentleman.
    Are these discontinued?
    I had eyed the 2.5" "travel" strop, but wasn't quick enough to purchase I guess.

    Joe,
    We have only ever sold 2" and 3" versions, never a 2 1/2" on the synthetic. I do have more on the shlf now but took the listing down a few days ago due to what seemed to be glitch in the code which would not let me edit it so I had delete it. I think the 3" Synthetic Originals are down now too.

    Turns out it was a glitch with my storefront hosts server, not my files though that kept telling me there was a "malicious attempt" on my website and would lock me out every time I went to change a quantity..

    Look for them again late Thursday or friday as I am closed right nof and working on a few wholesale orders.

    Tony

    I'm sorry you have to deal with punks, Tony. I hope they get caught and be given a "warm" welcome in prison. Ofcourse, the laws on white-collar crime are so inadequate, I don't expect for that to happen.

    Ilija,

    Funny part is, I am the malicious attempt on my own website This was on the day I wanted to list 4 sides again and evey item I clicked booted me out of my website.

    All worked out now and I'm still glad they have something in place just in case.

    Ok Tony. In that case I hope you don't end up in prison and don't get that "warm" welcome

    Sorry to hear Ilija thinks you're a punk.
    Are synthetic less prone to warping like leather due to humidity?

    Ahh, at 6' 6" 245# I can hold my own for a little while at least

    The synthetic is impervious to near anything but does come with a slight bow, not cup across it's width. The stiffness of the material though is light enought hat the bow easily flattens under the weight of the razor.

    Looking forward to trying it, finally.
    Thanks.
    My concern was the humidity of my bathroom (I've had a vent installed, but it's still a bathroom and higher than the rest of my home.
    BTW Sorry I called you "Miller' not sure why I missed the Tony part. Sounds like we're in a high school locker room.

    Yo Miller. I got the 2" synthetic strop. But now I can't find the 4-sided paddle. LOL.
    Meet me at my locker after 5th period.
