I bought this as a travel strop as I have a 3" and another 3"made by me. If I think I will have the time for a sr my travel choice is a Dovo Barbarossa which fits this stop. (no x strokes) The strop is well made and works fine. Small enough that it doesn't need to be rolled but long enough to use. could be placed on a counter and used as a paddle.

I ordered this item. But, it never came! I emailed them, even left messages on the customer service. Still waiting for this item!

I was surprised to see how small it is. After my initial surprise, I find it fits perfectly in the space I have. I haven’t used it yet. My straight razor came ready to shave. Having watched the educational videos, I am confident I will be fine. As soon as I get some experience, I will write another review. So far I am very happy with everything I have purchased from razor emporium.. The customer service, packaging, and products have been 1st class!

It's a good strop to practice on before buying an expensive one.
