    Default 3 layer strop

    I have an old barber shop strop; 2 leather 1 canvas

    Its' mark Russian Hone on top strop and the middle one has a diamond patern on back side.
    Are they suppose to be glued together? Because they are a perfect fit and the insides are not dirty and when i took the metal hanger off, they are stuck together like they were glued or maybe because time got them sticking together.
    The 2 strop together are close to 1/4 inch thick.

    Anyway the question is: Are they suppose to be glued together ot kept separate.

    I doubt they were glued together. Probably just two layers that stuck together over time from dirt and grime. Usually they take one layer of leather and finish the back side with a diamond pattern for extra abrasion but with really old strops who knows what the deal is there.
