I have for sale two sided paddle strops with lanyard + fine and coarse compound Asking $37ea shipped within the United States, if you're located outside the U.S. please contact for quote. Will ship within 24-48hrs via USPS first class and tracking will be provided.
A little about the strop and materials. First I started with a select grade piece of poplar and then ran it through a planer to get it nice and flat, ripped, cut to length, cut out handle shape, routed and then sanded the entire strop down to 500 grit sand paper. I drilled and lightly flared the hole and then added a black piece of 550 paracord for the lanyard. Each sided is branded, one side coarse and the other fine and then two coats of ebony stain are applied. The leather for the strop is a premium grade imported veg tanned leather, I do a lot of leather work and buy large or whole hides and select the best pieces for my strops. The leather is approximately 9oz in thickness and has a short nap and very dense feel. The leather takes compound very well and provides an almost therapeutic stropping experience in my opinion. The leather is attached via a hefty coating of contact cement and is not coming off anytime soon.
Strop dimensions: O.A.L is approximately 14.5", width is 2", stropping area each side is approximately 9.5" x 2"
Seller terms:
If you'd like a strop please post I'll take it in the thread, payment must be received within 24hrs of receiving payment information or item(s) will go back up for sale.
