Thread: Shelly

O.k so my new strop arrived yesterday and i must say i am in love, she is gorgeous,a lovely piece.
I ended up doing 30 passes on the linen, and 70 on the the leather, i call it a 100%. And also 20/20 after my shave.
I was stropping along and she was singing my song, what a connection we had, and yes i must say very therapeutic.
So it's a 3" shell with linen, and believe me i will be using every inch of it, "i'm sure i read somewhere that a 3" is wasted leather",well not if i have anything to do with it, i change hands every stropping session, so it will, wear even.
I would like to thank you Alastair,Westholme strops, for making this beautiful piece for me, the craftsmanship is top notch.
What else can i say, but recommend this to anyone who is interested in a shell cordovan strop.
