Hi folks, I hope everyone is doing great.
I recently scored another TM strop. I bought it second hand but unused. I have had 3 TM strops but have a difficult time identifying the leather.
I have a Notovan labeled Old No2. The 2" bridle was also labeled Old No2. The one I recently scored is labeled, you guessed it, Old No2.
It is my understanding Old No2 is the strop type. The leather being the same but being a choice cut if you will.
I've seen some of his strops labeled Horsehide. The Artisan Steer and Bridle on his website show pictures of being labeled Old No2.
So in short, does anyone know how to identify the leather type the strop is made from? The seller received it as a gift as does not know when it was purchased from TM.
