I just got a vintage c-mon shell strop in very good condition. There are no nicks or anything all I did was treat it wth a little neatsfoot and saddle soap and its good to go. Leather is super smooth and supple. However, I am used to Latigo, and this shell stop has zero draw. Is this how it's supposed to be?
Also the linen is embedded with wax of some sort. Whats the best way to clean this side?
Thanks.
