This is the "Lil Shaver" COBRA X-Cel Horsehide Strop.
Chromium tanned with added X-Cel process.
Soft and flexible, with medium drag, slightly more than our standard Cobra strop.
Extremely high quality at an affordable price !
These strops are of the finest quality. The strop is a full 3" (76mm) wide x 27" (686mm) long with a full 17" (432mm) of stropping surface.
This width allows you to use straight strokes with no need for the X pattern stroke, although you can if you prefer. This is a definite plus in your daily maintenance routine.
All of the hardware is cast by us in our foundry, then nickel plated and buffed to a lustrous shine.
The top hanger is a triangle, which allows for ease of attachment to any hook, and minimizes the pendulum effect of swinging.
This strop is very suitable for travel, the hardware on both ends can fold down allowing the strop to fit into carry-on luggage.

This offering is: Premium Horse Hide Cobra X-Cel
This is a natural material, it is the skin of a horse, and occasionally will have some marks. These are often scars from rubbing up against a barbwire fence, or may be wrinkles from age just like our skin. When it is in un-dyed neutral Russet color these mark are visible, in the darker tannage they are not.
They do not affect the performance of the strop in any way and are your guarantee that it is real horse hide!
This particular tannage of horsehide is soft and flexible, does not require any break-in period.
Available in other configurations
These strops are tanned specially for us by Horween to the same formulation as were the strops in 1900.
These strops far exceed any other on the market bar none and will enhance any fine razors edge.
All PEGASUS & Lil Shaver strops are truly a work of art and fine craftsmanship.
Every part of these strops are made by hand in the USA.
