You've got the best there is just around the corner - Mr. Neil Miller. Check out his site here:
Vintage Straight Razor Sales & Restorations, Hand Made Strops, UK Razor Honing and Vintage Hone Stones
What he said ^.
Thanks lads i thought there would be more around
Go with Neil Miller he uses the finest English Cordovan shell the best money can buy the UK produces the worlds finest leather always have. http://www.strop-shop.co.uk/hanging-...strops-2-c.asp
i think on srp there are also qualified craftsmen :D
thanks some great sites there
Robin,
Right you are about the SRD strops; they are quality at a great price. I'm especially fond of the SRD English Bridle.
The Tolorf (Scrupleworks) strop has spoiled me, though. Love the feel of it. Of course, Neil Miller's strops are a delight.
Which brings me to Kanayama 80000: suddenly I don't particularly care for it. Go figure. But as I said, Tolorf has spoiled me.
So to the OP, you already have plenty of choices. All good stuff.
Thanks for the input. Looking at the 3inch strops to make it easyer on myself
You have one more option in the UK. A gentleman named Alastair Summers owns Westholme Razor Strops. He does beautiful work and the folks I know that have one just love it. The only problem is, the only way to contact him is through his facebook page.
