    Default Tony Miller!!!!

    I came home today in a really crappy mood, we had our first blizzard today.And I was working all over town.Anyway I open the mail box, and there it was, a small note that told me I had recieved a package.Finally!My Heirloom Artisan Genuine Horsehide Strop.One side with horsehide and one with latigo.I ran to the postoffice, threw the note on the desk with heavy breathing,and paid the 25% extra taxes with a big smile.
    I cannot emphacise how happy I am with this product.Needles to say I started stropping like there was no tomorrow the moment I got back home.
    Both the horshide and latigo worked like a dream! How you, Tony Miller can make this merchandise in your sparetime, is a big mystery to me.You are a true artist, and I have tremendous respect for your work.From one craftsman to another.Thank you so much, I shall treasure it allways.
    So all of you guys who doesn't own a Tony Miller product.Get it!

    Congrats Kristoffer! I felt the exact same way when I got my Tony Miller strop. He's not only a great craftsman, but his service and attention to detail sets him apart as a true gentleman.

    Thank you all !
    I spent most of today running down supplies for the years end production and visiting my Amish craftsman friends. I have plenty of Latigo cut and ready and horshide is being cut now with the help of a friend.

    My big hold up is in the leather end caps and handles which are still a week off. I could not get burgundy latigo I was happy with for handles right now so am doing the next batch or two with black trim instead. I use a diffeernt type latigo for trim than I do for strop bodies.

    3" Artisans ought to be back in stock big time right after Thanksgiving but for now it will be the 2 1/2" models, paddles and Vegan strops.

    Take care,
    Tony

    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Got mine about a week ago and it is really truly great.
    The only issue I had was explaining to the staff at my office that it had nothing to do with gear one might keep in their basement. I don't know if they believed me or not.

    Tony I really appreciate your attention to detail just one of the things that seem to be fading away these days.
