    Default what of this strop???

    hey people

    i stumpbled upon this strop as i was looking on an online shop in a town near me

    so just like the other thread on razors dont consider this as a comercial for this site... anyways the prices are up the sky anyways... but... on to the strop...

    i found this very curious because i dont see it anywhere and dont know what to think of the stone on the back of the strop please tell me what kind of stone is that if you know more about this strop because i cand seem to find anything else on it

    its a boker strop wit leather on one side and a polishing stone of some kind on the other

    If that online shop (which seems more like a store with an online shop on top) is "near you", why don't you call them on +43 732 771831?

    Because when i was in that shop the lady there didn't know very much about straight razors and the prices there told me to stay away...

    also i will quote you a text from the descriprion of the böker king cutter on their online store so you can convince yourself if it is worth to call or not...

    ''...The popular shape of the razor is called "King Cutter,", also known as a "Spanish point." Hand-ground and assembled by our expert craftsmen. The blade is made of a special alloy, containing silver, for improved cutting capabilities. This model features a wear-resistant, durable black synthetic handle. Blade: 5/8 in...''

    The good people at Böker might be able to help you best. Drop them an email. I haven't seen that strop before FWIW.
