A Drygulch 3 inch wide American Bridal strop, with a Hemp linen 2nd side. (sadly this is going to a friend in USA before it makes its way to me, as I have a few bits at his waiting to come over to the UK to me) works out cheaper postage and customs etc...... Cant wait to use it, as I have heard Adams strops are good. I will post a review on it when I eventually get it. Thanks Adam
