Thanked: 0Sourcing Cordovan/Russian Shell strops/leather
I was wondering if anybody had any ideas on finding something of the sort. My understanding is that the Russian Red leather hasn't been made in 80 something years. If this is true, would it be possible to source a NOS/usable vintage one? The Cordovan seems to lead to a similar note, although it seems to be in production. The only place I can seem to find vintage/NOS strops is ebay, but the descriptions, pictures, and usability of such items are either lacking or very difficult to determine.
Added: Also, is there anything comparable being manufactured today, or would it have to be custom made?
