6. Ambrose Kangaroo strop
7. TM 2" or 2.5" can't decide yet, have till March though

2 : Illinois #835 leather + linen

I have 2 a SRD 3' Horse with linen backing, and a Star Shaving 3' black latigo.

I have three strops. A TM practice strop, a 3" TM red latigo, and a Kanayama. The practice strop goes in the suitcase and I use it when travelling. When at home I bounce between the Tony Miller latigo and the Kanayama depending how I feel that day.

I have two balsa strops. One has CrOx the other has 1 micron diamond paste. Since I use these for sharpening a blade, I don't know if you sould call these strops or hones.

That being said, I have three or five strops. It depends how you define strop.

4, all ambrose and all different leather.

I have a one of Legion's beginner strops and I am saving up for one of his deluxe kangaroo ones.

I also have a Dovo, but I don't use that one any more.

6.

8, including my wool felt HA

none, but that is getting close to changing.
