Folks I can completely vouch for Tony's No. 1 strop. I have several strops, and it is one of my favorites, rapidly gaining on the Jemico russian leather one I previously preferred.
Tony, of the #3 and #2 which of them do you prefer?
If they beat that No.1, I definitely will be looking at yet another strop....
