I went with the three inch and the thing looks really well made. It might not be a Tony Miller, but that will have to wait. It is quite a beast compared to my practice strop.
The surface seems a little rough kind of and the leather sure is stiff. I expect it to become broken in but there are a couple of imperfect spots on the surface. These spots seem kind of rough but nothing too dramatic. Is this normal? I just don't know if I should have received a totally smooth strop or if it is just that it needs a little break in. I stropped my whipped dog on it and didn't seem to make it less sharp so I guess it's ok.
I also got a new DOVO Special!
