Artisan Strops In Process Now, Well Shaved Gentleman
I satrted a new run of Artisans today and hope to release them on Saturday or Monday. These will be 3" models with Latigo/Smooth Cotton and Latigo/Smooth Horsehide. The genuine Linen is still not finished at the mill and I have no estimate of delivery for that material.
I've got my wide 3" Paddle in assembly now as well.
Thanks,
Tony

Great to see you around, Tony! The strops you sent are just fabulous, and have improved my shaves 10 fold!
Here's hoping life is treating you well!

I released both the Latigo/Coton and Latigo/Horsehide strops this evening for shipment on Tuesday/Wednesday.
Have a Great Weekend,
Tony

Tony, I hate you. I just got my barber's box, and now I just /have/ to order a new strop, too. Jerk!

I've got the same problem with fountian pens and old typewriters. Just when I decide on my final cut on my collection something new and interesting comes along <g>.
The bad news for you guys is, each time I need a new toy I have to make more strops to entice everyone and pay for my hobbies!
Thanks,
Tony

Tony -
I have a love/hate relationship with your site. I keep checking it out and hate it when it does not have what I am looking for.
However, now that you have the new latigo and horsehide strops available, I love your site. But then I hate your site because I can not resist.
Sooo, I have a latigo/horsehide on order now. I am sure I will be in love again when it arrives.
