My question for members, As a matter of storing brand new Kanayama strops. I have a #70000 for everyday use, and I have 3 others (#80,#70, #10) that I acquired as well. When they arrive new, they are in plastic, inside a long cardboard box, kept perfectly flat. Now that I have them here, what is the best way to safely store them, possibly for a year or more. (I have son's who are adult and I am trying to convert them to Str8ts). Are they OK just left in the box, or should they be hung? Do I need to remove the loose plastic sheath they come in? I have of course read Takeshi's instructs re cleaning etc, but I want to store the 3 strops, until they are given a new owner.
I would say it's ok to store the way they are but I am no expert on long term leather storage.
