Thanked: 3New Invisible Edge Strop
I just recieved my new strop from Steve at Invisible Edge and WOW! Just look at this handle. The control it gives me over the angle is brilliant. The strop is 3" wide Red Latigo with a 22" useable bed for my long arms. The fittings you could hang an elephant from. I cannot reccommend Steve enough for the service and quality of this strop.
Apologies for the dodgy photos but I
had to 'crow' about it.

Congratulation, mutters!
You bought one of the best looking strops money can buy in the moment.
I took an eye on it since months but I want this strop with horsehide. Steven told me that horeshide isn`t available in the needed quality. So I have to wait...

Thanked: 3Yeah it is a great looking strop. Believe me the photos don't do it justice. All I've got to do now is try not to nick it!
I hope yours comes soon but it will be worth the wait.

Very nice looking handle on that strop.
Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

Thanked: 346Be careful that it doesn't damage the paint on the door or cabinet from banging into it. I made one like that a few years ago and wound up having to wrap the handle in leather to protect the door and myself from SWMBO's ire.

Thanked: 3Nice one. At the moment I am hanging in another room as bathroom is small. Actually now you mention it I do hear what may be swearing from the bedroom when I hang it back up and the handle bangs. Maybe something to do with me getting up at 4.45 every morning.
