"Look what I found"
This came from a very unexpected place, one of my honey hole junk shops. A vintage Biber Loom Strop. Bought it more for its novelty then its usefulness. A little beat up but still has some life left.
Hey man,Cordovan leather is a process of treating leather, not the leather itself.
Any leather can be treated in the Cordovan process.
Shell is a cut from just below the skin on the rump of the horse.
I have seen old ads that stated Red imp was a Shell leather and the 700c was there top strop from Certifyd.

Bump...Hey man,
Hi,
Been reading up your posts. Can you give me some information on Red imp strops, please?
I got one that says Keen-edge then red Imp. and the stamp on the linen is pinkish purple, and thats weird. At the bottom of the leather it doesn't say cerityed because it was made for a barber supplies Co. but it does say 700c. Anyways cant find info on ome saying keen-edge. Have you? Its varies in thickness but its around 3.22mm, it is shell.
Thanks,
