English Bridal Leather For Modular Strop
So Im using Lynns modular paddle. Just started this week great piece in the arsenal. I'm new so I ruined my first modular panel lol. Anyway, I mastered what was needed to move forward.
This time I opted for the English Bridal Leather. Can anyone tell me the pros to this leather? Is there a difference?

Thanked: 603You can have everything, and still not have enough.
I'd give it all up, for just a little more.

Thanked: 31English Bridle has a fine surface texture compared to other leather types, makes for a smooth and enjoyable draw.
I usually choose strop leather based on texture and thickness. I found a great buffalo hide (half) the other day. Excited to make a gift for a friend.
English Bridle, Latigo, and etc are popular choices.

ElDivo,
WRT the ruined panel, could you not give it a good sanding and use it for pastes ?
Have fun
Best regards
Russ

EB makes an awesome stropping surface, very smooth with light draw. It's my main strop.
