Kamisori Diary Kanayama Strops
I think I may have mentioned in the beginning of the video that theGreat video. Did he tell you what all the different grades represent?
That is correct. While I was in the Kanayama workship, Mr Naomi showed me some strops that he said were for a German company. They were shorter than the Kanayama brand and had braided cords attached to them. The ones he showed me were not stamped yet.I am curious. Mr Naomi is the head behind his firm Kanayama strops? Do they sell their leather for other firms too? You can buy a strop in Germany which claims that their leather is from Kanayama but with their own logo on it. Those strops are from "Schulz".
