I've just cut out a couple of strops out of a pair of beige Wranglers which somehow ended up in the loft cast off's from a family member I think he out grew them waist wise and thought they would fit me but they are too big the good thing is they are pretty much new. One strop is about 4.5cm wide another about 10cm they are both 3 ply and ironed, the narrower one has been attached to some strop hardware while the 2nd has been left as folded fabric and I've used it wedged into a closed draw.
Its very effective, 30 laps then 60 laps on the Neil Miller strop I have and my razors both passed the HHT better than before and better than the leather alone.
I think the 10cm strop will be attached to some wood as hardware, but not tonight.
I have some material left I wonder if denim would be a good surface for chromium oxide.
