Strop Bros

Do you know what a strop is? You’ve probably seen an example of one in movies: the long piece of leather the barber uses to polish up the razor. We always wondered what that piece was called. Now we know.

According to wikipedia, a strop:

is a flexible strip of leather, canvas, denim fabric, balsa wood, or other soft material, used to straighten and polish the blade of a straight razor, a knife, or a woodworking tool such as a chisel
