    From searching and reading peoples' opinions and assorted input, I'd say just pull the trigger and buy one.

    It's unlikely that you'll find much (if anything) negative said about his stuff.

    I recently went to full-time straight razor use and ordered the 3" Heirloom Artisan Red Latigo strop yesterday.

    I received my 3" Heirloom Artisan Red Latigo strop from Tony yesterday in the mail. It's very beautiful. It's nice to have more stropping area. He's going to be closing shop for a couple of week's starting Friday, I think, so I would go for it. Every body on this site talk's very highly of Tony

    My plans are to buy the same 3" strop from Tony, but I just bought a str8 from his website (just now), so the strop will wait til next month. It was a tough choice.

    It will be one of the first items avaialble when I open again in early January. I was surprised at the reception to the narrow 2" old School models. I figured me and "yutahey" would be the only two guys who would want them but they have sold quite well.

    I'll be doing latigo versions too and have some other variants in the works.
