Antique Pike #75 Strop

[timwcic]

This is a nice score, a antique Pike #75 in what in what in what I think is boar. It is in a very low mileage condition and well taken care of. It measures 22 x 2 inches. The sharpen side has a embossed work surface. The finish side is marked “Newshell Trademark” and is slick as it should be. Nice logo’s and overall very nice

Great score indeed!
It is absolutely Boar hide and in fantastic condition.
Never seen a Pike strop before, didn't know they even made strops.

Thanks, this is another Pike that got away from me a few years ago. Don’t think it is as old as the boar. Could not put a deal together with the seller and had to throw it back. Saved the picture to remind me of one of the few that got away
