Thread: Have you tried the SRD Kangaroo strop?

Has anyone out there tried the new kangaroo strop from SRD? I have the SRD English bridle strop, and love it. But I've been thinking of getting a second strop. Does anyone know how the kangaroo strop might compare to the SRD bridle strop?

Their website has a description of each strop and it's characteristics. Medium draw on the 'roo' and 'enhanced' on the bridle. I haven't tried either of those but I have the premium 1 and like it very much. The draw on that is 'just right' for me.

I have the SRD Roo strop but I don't have the bridle. I broke out my Flic and did about 25 laps on the roo, 25 laps on my Kanayama followed by 25 more on my red latigo. Since this is the first time I've used the roo it feels slick and the razor glides smooth across. With that said I also felt the same way about the Kanayama until it was broken in as a daily stropper.

So, for now the draw on the latigo feels greater, Kanayama is mild (in my mind just right) and the SRD roo being even more mild. It will take several more stropping sessions to break in the roo IMO.
