Nice looking work Ken,,,they look real nice.
rell nice strops are you ever going to start selling them
Yes, I'm selling them now. (I sure wish I had my new web-site up.) I have three levels. All prices include CONUS shipping.
My entry level is the "Filly" it is made from 8-9oz 2"-2 1/2" X 17-20" top grain cowhide it has no handles or hanger hardware. It does come with a thong for looping around a doorknob or towel rack. I'm selling these for $25.00. It's a great starter/travel strop. I've sold a bunch of these.
My middle line is the "El Toro" it is 9oz top grain cowhide. It is sized 2"-2 1/2" X 17-20" it can come handle less or with a D ring, it is also available with a 2" canvas strop. It has a swivel clip hanger. These range from $35.00 to $55.00.
My top line is the "Paladin", these are made from 8-9oz 2"-2 1/2" X 17-20" premium horsehide. They are also available with a 2" canvas strop. The can be made handleless or with D ring handle. It has a swivel clip hanger. They can be all in one or as a double strop. Prices range from $65.00 to $95.00. If a 3" wide cut is requested I charge an additional $15.00.
At this time I only have 2" wide canvas. I have not found a source for 2 1/2" or 3" canvas our linen that I am willing to invest in. Minimum orders of 1,000 yards are bit more then I can handle at this time.
At this point I'm taking custom orders. I can't keep them in stock.
Love the names Ken,
Strops look great btw and great prices.:tu
Hi Ken
Nice strops:tu
Hope you will keep making them........and the price are good to!
I know this is an old thread but... you used gait belts for the canvas, didn't you?
I have one laying around, that I will never use. What a good idea!:tu
