Neil Miller multi component paddle strop.

My new strop from the late Neil Miller arrived today, a multi-component magnetic paddle strop 6 surfaces including 3 types of leather soft Latigo med/heavy draw, Cowhide light/med draw, Horsehide med/light draw, hard wool felt, Flax Linen, and finally Balsa, a truly wonderful item to have and to own that will definitely see a lot of use from me, the stropping surface measures 12" x 3".

How were you able to get that Jamie?  I have a magnetic modular paddle strop from Straight Razor Designs, but it's not as nice as Neil's.  I wish I had acquired one of these before Neil's passing.

Ricardo,

this was a little bit of luck as Neil is no longer with us and he certainly didn't make to many of these, lucky for me a guy I know on a UK forum put this one up for sale never used I couldn't say no.

You would be crazy to not take it, very nice stuff indeed!

You're very lucky.  I recall seeing these on Neil's website and thinking about getting one, but they were rarely available.  I should have been more diligent and contacted him about one.  Anyway, congratulations on a uniquely beautiful and functional paddle strop.

Holy moly, Jamie, how on earth did you land this rare item?! Can you permanently lend it to me? Thanks.

Beautiful strop Jamie. Thank you for sharing
