    Beautiful!

    I also keep hearing that his restorations and honing is also that level of quality. I hear that from many many members. One line was that a guy thought Neil could get a great edge by honing on a concrete block. Perhaps a bit of exaggeration there, but I'm never surprised to hear people are pleased w/ his quality.

    Beautiful strop, I know you'll enjoy using it. I received mine last week, Horween Cordovan w/real linen and it immediately became my favorite for daily care. Enjoy it in good health!!

    Best Regards,

    Howard

    Congratulations! You have one of the finest crafted strops that can be purchased. Neil's work with leather is as good as it gets, ever. You will love the natural linen he uses for the secondary. Enjoy!

    Fabulous workmanship in that strop... I don't know what you paid for it - but it was worth it.

    Gentlemen,
    I have viewed Neil Miller's strops frequently and been in awe of how handsome they look. They also are known for their quality and workmanship. I have also interviewed Neil to know what a gentleman and an artist he is. The strop in the photo is glorious. Congratulations. I have promised myself that my next strop will be a Neil Miller. I can't wait.
