I don't know who is carrying Kanayama right now. JimR was but stopped months ago. He said QC was not up to par on some of them but still up to par on the higher end strops. Anyway, you might shoot him a PM and ask. I had a 90,000 but sold it because it cost too much for me to feel 'safe' stropping on it. Then months later, I bought a second hand 80,000. Same strop set but standard length. The 90,000 is a few inches longer. I like the standard length better since it is what I am used to. Anyway, the Kanayama strops use a cordovan that is unlike any I have experienced and I've gone through a lot of strops, new and vintage. I don't know if it is better in terms of the final outcome but it is sure is a beautiful strop. Kind of like a VW will get you to the same destination as a Mercedes but I'd rather be in the latter.
