Yet another homemade paddle strop
I made this with the thought of being able to change leather or fabric and keep the paddle as razor inflicted damage occurs.
3" Latigo leather with a poor dye job (came in 72" strap!). #4 Cotton Duck Canvas (huge sheet enough for a dozen strops). Oak paddle with 4 coats of Formby's tung oil.
Measurements of overall length and usable stropping length in the pics.
