I find firehose on ebay sold by the foot. Is this concidered flax?
Ive also got the premium cloth strops from SRD that are a woven material. Just trying to figure out what flax really is.
Nice setup you got there Mike. I have to hide mine. :(

Figured it out. Firehose and srd premium is not flax. Thanks to a little help from a freind.
I might still have to get one so that i can feel the difference. This hobby keeps dipping into my wallet.
It is hard to source, Neil Miller had a source and I believe it's the same as Scrupleworks s using, they look identical, I will say this the SD cotton us what I have my Lead on.. Tc
I just put in my order at scrupleworks. 45 bucks and 20 for shipping. Or there abouts, for the flax linen strop in 3", barber end.
Was qouoted 530 NOK. That scared me until i figured out the exchange rate. Ha.
Your strop but I Would change that order to a 2-1/2 " wide. But if your send to a 3" maybe it's alright, I just don't like the cupping on the 3". Tc
This kind

I have this available for my friends. You want Vintage, and single walled, the double is lined with rubber.
Back when 2.5 inches width was standard. I sent some to Gasman.
I have a SRD Latigo with match webbing. I have not used it once since I received my Scruplewerks strop! (Thank you Gary!!). Seems to smooth the edge better and has much nicer feedback on the leather and linen IMO. Awesome product. Next, Westholme shell cordovan but I now have to wait until he is taking orders again. Poor timing on my part!!
