Just based on a quick search "Kanoyama" there
must be a lot more than 3 members of this forum
who have a Kanoyama strop.

Think about this... A lone artisan who has labored
away alone in his shop for seventy years. He finally
retires due to age. No party, no gold watch, no one
to recognize his hard work and achievements. If you
know someone on this forum or any other forum who
has a Kanoyama strop, please encourage them to take
a moment, compose a picture and post it on this thread.
It won't cost a dime, just a few minutes of your time...but
it may give an older Japanese gentleman, who sweated
so much for his craft, some joy in his twilight years.

I will extend the deadline a few more days week, until April 25th.

Yep I have 3 love them , but let’s not forget they are just a piece of leather

Would be a good idea to extend it even longer, the forum is a little less active lately. Would give members a chance to post.
Beautiful pictures by the way gents.

Indeed, I feel you are missing your goal by seeking 'customers'.
I have several and have never bought from a retailer.
I could say the average member here is not going to lay out for one when other strops will do.

Most are in the hands of people like Myself and Tc. Many have disappeared and it would seem the strops left are all there are.
No matter. Might try other forums to weed all the individual pics you can find from individuals.
