    I may add a handle later, but to be honest I'm so used to my other one that just has the D-ring that I didn't even think to add one. I have enough leather to make one more strop, but probably not enough for another strop & handles.

    It was in original condition, faded red, well-worn, but nice.
    This was and still is my favorite combination; beautiful, original, and worn.

    But now I'm curious - what are peoples thoughts on the various conditioners, treatments, etc. As I said I'm considering putting on some neatsfoot oil. I have an advantage in that I have a bunch of the same leather that I can test it on. But what if anything do you all put on your leather strops?
    Got boot conditioner. Would that be something that would work?
