Ordering a Scrupleworks Oil Tanned Horween Horsehide... pic request & thoughts
I am now in the market for a new strop... I am going for a 2.5" Scrupleworks Oil Tanned Horween Horsehide.
No handles but rather than bare barber ends, I am going to request Torolf add some end caps just to have something to hold onto. Essentially, finish the ends as he would with handles and leave the handles off. I have seen and am considering the "T" hardware.. pretty cool.
Not sure what my color options are going to be since I haven't heard back from Torolf yet.. but the more natural the color can be, the better. I prefer to leave it undied if possible and let use & time determine the color.
Still undecided if I want natural linen or cotton and to be frank, I may get both. But I may choose to have them all separate and detached from each other. Three separate components. I have natural linen on my Tony Miller. I'd like to try cotton as well, but since Torolf builds the strops in a non-modular fashion, I don't want to be cornered in to one material. Hence the three separate components.
I would love to see some pictures of your Scrupleworks Oil Tanned Horween Horsehide strops!!
