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....

I'm afraid that I am going to have to disappoint you Mandrake - and say yes!

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
