Thread: new aquisition...TM 3"

First off, I want to say thanks to Tony Miller. Despite all that he has going on right now, he got my strop to me quick as lightnin. Over the course of the next few weeks my shave-den, uh bathroom, is being completely remodeled. New floor, shower, vanity, everything. But today I received the most impotant upgrade on the list: an Heirloom 3" Artisan/ latigo and cotton. My second strop, first was a Filly. Man, this thing is beautiful. Haven't used it yet, nowhere to hang it properly, but part of me wants to just put it in a display case. Can't wait to put it to use. Again, thanks Tony.

Congrats! Ive yet to purchase one, but their reputation procedes itself.

Tony's famous for his strops for a good reason. They're incredibly well-crafted. After using one of his vegan strops for a year, I have been using his 3" Artisan latigo w/ linen for about 3 months and love it. I sold the vegan one to someone here who really wanted a vegan strop after Tony had stopped making more.

Strops are the only thing I don't feel a need to go and buy a dozen of. I believe it's because I started out with a TM strop and it leaves you wanting nothing more. Except maybe another TM strop for pastes...

As you use it, it'll get better and better, too.

Finally got to use my new strop. Wow. Gonna take a little adjustment for the extra width, but for the most part it was effortless. One of the best shaves I have had so far without a doubt. Money well spent.
