A few weeks ago I got one of the 2" Walkin' Horse cordovan shell strops from The Superior Shave, and it's a world-rocker in my experience. The only comparable experience was when I got my 12k Naniwa. The strop, like the hone, has opened up a new level of expectations from my blades. I like the linen back on the 2" version, too. The main selling point was that the 2" is cheaper, and to be honest, I don't miss the extra half-inch that all my other strops have.
It's hard to believe that anything so slick can do something to steel, but it really does. So far there's no draw to speak of. But there's something going on nonetheless.
