    Default My first home made loom strop.

    Hi.
    Good fun making it. I have learned few things. I've used old "Genuine Imported Clydesdale Shell" strop. Handle is made of ebony.

    That doesn't look like it came out too badly. Good work. That razor looks very narrow, what is it about 4/8"?

    It has crossed my mind on several occasions to make a loom strop. Do you have any tips you can pass on to the rest of us?
