    Is that the heirloom 3" he sells that has a light draw?

    Beautiful strop. I've been eyeing this as my next purchase. I have heard nothing but good things about tony and his strops. Happy shaving!

    Yes. Is the 3" Heirloom Artisan Premium Fast Bridle Strop.

    Tony goes through phases with his strop making. He makes batches of whatever he feels like or uses whatever leather he has available. I am not in any way disparaging him. I highly recommend his strops but just want any potential buyer to understand that not all of his stock is available all the time.

    Be patient!

    I have one just like it. To me it's the last word in strops. Love it.

    I just got one of these a few weeks back and his site stated that they were sold out. I contacted him to see when he was going to have it back in stock and he said he would make one for me and ship it out. From first email to delivery was about 7 days and well worth the wait! I guess it never hurts to ask and then be patient!

    I've had mine for about a year now - Heirloom #3, superb piece of craftsmanship, been palm rubbing it steadily, can tell this one will take a long time to loosen up - hit it last night with a touch of Fromm's Strop Treatment to soften it up some more.

    Perhaps mine was made from the same batch. I happened to find mine available at his site, I believe it was the last one of that batch.

    The craftsmanship is amazing and you are correct, the shipping was very fast.
