This Friodur was meticulously restored and given an expert level Jnat edge before being generously gifted to me by my friend @Mike Shults
My hanging strops don’t see as much action these days but this shave piece was joyfully ringing away riding along the Rasoir Sabre France horsehide.

Delightful results today.
