Thread: NOS strops

Hi. just today I had found on eBay NOS strops. This is a new seller, he had no feedbacks and price is really cheap, so I want to ask if anyone have used this stops? Can it be fake?

Vintage ACE HIGH Straight Razor Strop NEW OLD STOCK never used No.2 REALEDGE 24" | eBay

I would go for it. Cant go to far wrong at that price.

I have a feeling the final bid will be more than $9.99

I think the same, but I'm still waiting shipping price, it can change everything

It's a live auction, so the price can increase a lot, especially now that you posted it here....
You are not supposed to post live auctions.

That's not a problem. I have a good strop, and if anybody want to by it and can pay more - they need to buy it

I was just wondering whether this is fake or not. And if it is nit - I prefer to buy it.

When you can find the old strops in great condition, I would always say to buy one. All that I have ever gotten in NOS condition have been great. Of course, they don't stay NOS long.........

Have fun.

I've never heard of a fake strop. There simply isn't that much demand that someone would go to the trouble of doing that.

Back in the day similar to barbers hones there were a handful of outfits that made all of them and they just put a retailer or razor manufacturers name on them which is why you see so many different names. Sometimes the actual manufacturer had their name on it but not always.

With Eboy it's always buy the seller first then the item.
