    Default Super strops for UK

    Not sure if this sort of advert/rant is allowed and my appologies if it not.

    I have stumbeld across a handmade strop company based here in the UK while searching the web as most others are way too expensive or USA based and our lovely goverment and the import duites do not help us out.

    www.strop-shop.co.uk - hand made straight razor strops, razor pouches, shaving accessories, vintage razors, razor honing and restoration

    I have issued a request for a 2.5" latigo hanging strop for my christmas present from the parents in law, and the strop is handmade in the UK for £35!

    Discovered the shop quite recently and I was amazed by the quality of the strops, I dream with a Latigo & Cowhide Strop, will you have this back in stock in the near future (please say no....)

    TheChef,

    Mr Millers' strops are top-notch; I have a 3 " black latigo hanging strop, a 3 " linen hanging strop & a 3" black latigo/felt paddle strop - they are all superb

    Have fun !

    Best regards

    Russ

    That 3" black latigo looks amazing. I am going to collect my 3" wool felt strop I got for cr.oxide pasting from the post office tomorow morning.It says on the site, 7 - 14 days but I only ordered mine two days ago and it arrived today!
    After the new year is in, one of those black latigo beauties is mine.
