In the course of modifying my beginner strops to a tri strop configuration, I was forced to cut off a piece from the latigo section to make things equal length. I was amazed at the thickness of the leather, the tightness of the grain, and the depth of the tanning oils. This strop leather would have no need to be dressed for a very long time....the oils impregnate to a depth of close to a 16th of an inch, depending on how good your eyesight is.
I'm not sure you could get better leather than this in a latigo
