    Default First attempt at restore

    I purchased a strop today on the bay and am gonna try my hand at a restore. Up to this point my only strop restoration skills have come from fixing my screw ups. The strop seemed a pretty fair price but also pretty beat up. Hopefully I can bring it back to its former glory. Here are the pics and any advice or words of wisdom are helpful. Also what do you guys think of the current condition? I plan to follow one of the many basic strop restoration threads with sanding and Neats.

    Razor rich, but money poor. I should have diversified into Eschers!
