    Default Which of my strops would you keep?

    Here are my inherited vintage strops. I've only got room to keep one, which one should it be?

    I'd say the loom and the ivory one. Use the loom and show the ivory...

    Keep them all if you inherited it. No such thing as no room. Tc

    Try them out and see what one you like best. Some might be coated with something that might work better for your needs.

    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    That sounds like a terrible situation. Keep them would be my concept too. It will be a tough choice. I guess which one really floats your boat. One of them has to speak to you more than the rest.

    I also would say keep them all, but if you have to sell, keep the loom and the ivory handled ones
