How do you like your Felxxx Strop? Moe specifically, how hard and smooth / rough is the leather?
I believe that Flexxx is a banned member here. If you do a search I think that you may find good reason to avoid doing business with him.
So I did a search and found one thread where he was a couple of days slow to ship a strop, but the OP was happy with how it was resolved. In that thread, there is one reference to him being banned for not having the correct membership level. I have found a ton of other threads where people praise the quality of the product, and multiple BladeFroums.com sponsoring vendors carry Flexxx Strops.
I appreciate you giving me a "heads-up," but can you please provide more details about the "good reason to avoid doing business with him." I don't want to get ripped off, deal with poor customer service or buy a sub-standard product. Also, if there is another strop maker out there that you prefer, please tell me.

I am not going to do a bunch of homework for you. I don't think that this is the only forum that he is banned from. Hrere is a start. Stropman gets my money. Good luck.

FWIW, it reflects very poorly on the credibility and character of anyone who maligns the reputation of a company with no supporting evidence.
Well said sir. Especially when it's a small company or individual maker just trying to grind a living doing what they love.
What strop did you go with if you don't mind me asking?
