Thread: Kintaka Strop = Pelican strop

Picked up this Kintaka horsehide stop likely sold by the Takagi Co., Tokyo. Noticed during my research that the Pelican Stop has the exact same bottom logo and exact hardware. Kanayama also has the same hardware. Anyone familiar with Kintaka strop and is it related to the others? The Kintaka strop will have to be cleaned up a bit but it strops nicely, just glides beautifully, no pull whatsoever. Appreciate comments form The Japanese strop experts out there! Thanks
