so I have finished the strop couple of days ago just didn't have time to put it on the website. So first of all I had to sand the leather up used 400grit 3m wet&dry, didn't want to use any of them cheap ones to prevent particles sticking into leather. I didn't have any neatsfoot oil and didn't really want to order a 500ml bottle just to treat strop and I heard you really don't need a lot, so I have used a little of baby oil and worked just fine. my first strop was just an cheap ebay one so when I used my made strop I was surprised how good of a shave a had. strop have a little draw to it which is nice to. I have a quite bit of leather let so I might make a handle to kind of srd style. hope you enjoy pics guys.

It looks very nice! I want to have a go at making a strop myself as well, just need to find pins and hooks, I can buy the leather a few blocks away.
