    Default Tony Miller "Old #2"

    Thought I'd put up a couple of pics of Old #2. This is from Tony's first run of "new" Old School strops. No muss, no fuss, just a great piece of Latigo with a Cotton second strop--24" x 2 1/2", square cut ends--barber style.

    I've got me a latigo/linen extra wide, and I cannot give Tony enough praises on the quality of his strops. Hands down, absolutely amazing.


    Smells good, too!

    Is he making strops again?

    Edit: I went to his website and checked for myself. I would have bought one but he's already sold out of the 2.5" but still has the 2" version. Unfortunately, I only prefer the 2.5" strops.

    Here is Old #2 version I've got few days ago. I took latigo (too bad no horsehide was available this time) and wool. To be honest I prefer 3" strops, but 2 1/2 is ok too. That thing is looong, oh dear, look at that. It is about 64 cm, or 25", longer that average strop.
