Thread: A strop to grow into? - Tony Miller +?

Tony Miller is great, and you can get a 'practice' strop along with your Latigo-Cotton/Linen for a very, VERY affordable price. (I'm pretty sure it's still under $10)

This also is a shameless plug for Tony Miller, who has given me no incentives other than the finest customer service and quality product I could ever have dreamed of.

RupRazor Paladin. It is buffed horsehide which for my taste has a little too much draw but after you use it the nap settles down a bit and you get a satiny smooth draw and beautiful finish. I won't look back on it. Can't speak to other strops but Ken's work is great and I think the Filly is Latigo so wherever you buy you might wanna get a Horse/Fabric combo so you can go fabric (linen, nylon, canvas, cotton, etc) to the Filly (latigo) to Horse. Just some thoughts.

I really like (and use) Tony's Horsehide/Genuine Linen and
the SRD Premium I. I'd like to try some more of the SRD
leathers, but I've had an impressive streak of no-shaving
purchases that I don't want to break

I just ordered a 2.5 replacement hosehide from Tony--should work great w/ his linen!

Here's a fun "ultimate stropping idea": TM linen, SRD webbing, SRD buffalo, TM horse.

On days where I want to "meditate" with my stropping,

TM Linen, SRD Webbing, TM Nylon, TM Latigo, SRD Bridle, TM Horsehide.

50 on each (give or take) Really gets you in the zone, and overpolishes the blade...

I enjoy stropping

I've been using a TM latigo and horsehide. Very good quality leather and refines an edge you expect from a properly honed razor.
