    Here's a video of me stropping my Japanese razor on my Kanayama 8000.

    Good to see the Master Stropmaker looking well!

    I've heard so many conflicting reports over the past year or two that I did not know what to think ... Confidence restored!

    Pete, you can ask him to autograph your strop for you. Secondary side of the cordovan.
    I was able to order an autographed 80K back when Jim was still selling the Kanoyama's.

    I wonder if this Japanese tannery (Shinki-Hikaku Co.) may be the source for Naomi-sans shell cordovan? I believe they have been in business since the early 1950's?
