Polish Strop Maker - Dawid Saczuk

[Gairdner]

I'm just about to journey down that long 'straight' road and needed a strop. Much rooting around hither and thither yielded a recommendation for the work of Dawid Saczuk who runs a business by the name Custom Shaving Accessories in his native Poland. He was extremely pleasant to deal with and I look forward to receiving my strop which I'll use with three straight razors that I'll be sending off to Jamie Mahoney for honing.

Just one example of his work:

Dawid's website is here and I urge you peruse it: https://customshaving.store/

His prices seems very reaonable indeed and delivery isn't costly either. A very accommodating chap to deal with too.

I hope this post proves of interest to all.

Best wishes,
Graeme

He's a member of one of the straight razor groups I moderate on Facebook. I probably approved his membership about 3 years ago.

I have applied to join, I hope you’ll have me as green as I am.

That does seem very practical considering you have to be prepared to learn how to mend cuts to your strop when learning to strop. Good luck going forward.

Thanks Bob. I’ll need it!

Welcome to the dark side, my friend...
I wish you good luck, patience and minimal gore!

Did the strop ever arrive? If so, are you enjoying using?
