If you haven't experienced the Scrupleworks Flax linen you are in for a very pleasant surprise, it is also about as different as you can get as opposed to the Kanayama Hemp.
It is very supple yet not thin and you are able to detect slight variances in pressure and angle very well. It has a light and positive draw that's a pleasure to strop on and as I stated earlier the feedback and performance is second to none that I have tried.
If you have a chance at a Neil Miller I strongly recommend trying his strops, they are wonderful.
