Save grandfather's old strop
I got this small strop from my dad. It was his dad's. He doesn't use a straight so now I have it. Problem is, it probably hasn't been used in 40 years. I don't know much about this stuff since I just started with straight shaving. I think it's leather/wood and about 8 inches long. There was a small lift in the edge of the leather on one side. I tried to push it to see if it would give, but it just cracked :(
So the question is, can I give this thing enough TLC to save it? Or could I rip off the old leather and glue a new strip on? Also, any details on make/manufacturer/materials would be appreciated.
