I've been into sharpening lately, so I made this.
I got the leather out of the scrap bin at a leatherworking shop nearby. Cost: one dollar. The body is a chunk of birch out of the cutoff bin at my lumberyard. Cost: 25 cents.
So a buck and a quarter worth of strop. Dimensions were determined by the leather scrap. If this proves useful I'll go back and get some more (a five dollar scrap piece is quite a lot of material).
Not so elegant, but useful.
