The SRD webbing is a really nice "cloth" option, IMO. Used as a pre-leather, unpasted strop it's awesome. (Can't comment on pasted versions.) The only thing is, there's so little draw it's a little unnerving at first. At least for me it was.
It is a little unnerving at first, isn't it? I kinda like it now that I'm used to it, though.
