I have an order for two 3"x24" peices of 1/8" red latigo comming along with the hardware (handel and hook part) to make a strop. I'll let everyone know how it works out. Keith was very helpfull.:tu

I got keith's recommendation, and a very nice strop it is too. My razors finally pass the HHT!
Josh, discovery's half of the fun :w
I just finished putting the handle and hook end on the 3"x24" red latigo Keith sent me. I also added the linnen part from an older illinois strop I had. Perrty nice, I'll have to post a pic later on when I figur out how to.

Here is a couple of pics of the Hand American strop I put together.

That is a fine looking strop. I am embarassed to say that something i was doing as i flipped the razor at the handle end has resulted in a few small nicks to mine. Oh well, live and learn :)
I know what you mean, I have'nt nicked mine yet. I try to make myself slowdown when I fine that I'm going to quick.
