Thanked: 1072The strops in this picture belonged to my Grandfather many years ago.
The triangular wooden blocks under the leather were wedged in there pretty tight but could be removed. I found some cardboard shims under one of them when I looked.
I've actually restored them since I took this photo, but dont really use them, just thought you guys might be interested.

Thanked: 3215Now there’s an idea, put the blocks in after fastening the leather and either shim the blocks or make a couple of slightly larger ones for later.
Just saw one of those in an antique store yesterday, thanks Baldy.
