I've got an 80K on order. It is a very expensive strop and I've had to part with a few razors to generate the funds for it. It is very expensive, but this particular strop is of 3 components - as well as the cordovan and the linen, an intermediate horsehide strop is provided.
If you consider the extra over cost of a third component, in addition to the fabulous leather case (dust cover) that comes with it, it seems a little more justified.
I'm very excited for its arrival!
As a side note, I think that the dust case is an awesome idea. Not just for travel (although I'm not sure I'd travel with this strop!) but I always have a suspicion in the back of my mind that dust is a very very mild abrasive and no matter how much I palm rub the strop routinely; it becomes embedded in the hide.
I don't know why all strops don't have these, or at least I don't know why they aren't a readily available option.
