Ok so I’m wanna buy a good horse strop and I’m looking at different options here.
Budget not a problem (I think) saved enough the last few months just to get a good quality horse strop.
So I’m looking at this nice well done looking Horsehide strops on eBay and Etsy for around 100-150 dollars.
And a good cordovan horse shell for around 200-250 dollars.
Now my question is:
Can somebody tell me the why to choose horse shell over Horsehide ?
And I’m no trying to start a little battle here I just want to know the why?
Is it for luxury or really for performance?
The difference in price is quite a lot
From $100 all the way to over $300.
I also came around this different cordovan thing:
Cordovan shell horse runs around $200
“Horween” horse shell over $300
Is the horween something different or more special?
Anyway give me your thoughts on this thank you
