It has been a "Roughout" week here with my latest "Roughout" strops, inspired by the Russian Leather strops like the Illinois #827. These are using a compressed, skived flesh side of the European Bridle hides as the working surface rather than the outer skin side. They have a nice, heavy, slow draw and a sort of magnetic feel between razor and leather.
I also have a few of the Horsehide "Roughouts" which are more of a coarse rather than heavy draw.
All the usual options, D-rings or handles, cotton, hemp linen secondary components or as single component, leather only strops with no cloth component
