VERY glad to see this post. I've yet to hear anything but good reviews on these strops, and I just ordered on myself tonight. (Probably get it on Tuesday if they ship on Saturdays)
What do you think about the web fabric compared to traditional linen?
I have a SRD 3" black latigo, the strop is top notch in fit and finish, the web fabric I will admit was a bit strange to me compared to what my other strop fabrics look and feel like but it works just fine nothing wrong with being a little different as long as it works and it does no complaints at all.
ABOUT 6 MONTHS AGO I PURCHASED THE BLACK LATIGO IN 3 inch width.
IT IS A GREAT STROP. THE DRAW IS EXCELLENT.
THE JURY IS STILL OUT ON THE FABRIC. IT WORKS VERY WELL INDEED.
I STILL LIKE THE FEEL OF THE OLD STYLE LENIN.
SO FAR I AM CONVINCED THAT LENIN AND HORSEHIDE SHELL IS THE BEST FOR HOLLOW GROUND RAZORS.
FOR A VARIETY OF RAZORS, GRIND, SIZE, ETC. THE FABRIC AND LATIGO IS HARD TO BEAT.
I think you accidentally hit your BILLY MAYS key. :)
My new 3" SRD red latigo just showed up today.
First impression: HEAVY (in a good way). This thing feels really substantial and well made in your hands.
Congrats. I love my 3" red latigo. A giant improvement over what I was using before. I'm sure you'll love it.
I have it to. Its great looking and performing. Great tool!!!
I also have a 3" SRD Latigo Strop - I love it! I'll be honest, I don't have much experience, but it seems very well built. It feels good in my hands and looks like it could take quite the beating (not from me, though!).
I just got my red latigo strop last night. It's beautiful and well made. My only fear is that I will cut it so my mind doesn't wander while stropping.
