RAZOR STROP AFiled March 5, 1950 A. .ff/Mar? |NVENTOR w13. DAVIS BY ATTORNEYS Patented Nov. 14, 1933 l RAZOR sTRoP William C. Davis,
Los Angeles, Calif.
Application March 5, 1930. Serial No. 433,391
2 Claims.
My invention relates to a razor strop.
In making razor strops of leather, the hair side is the one used for stropping. However, it is diiicult to secure a perfect edge on a krazor 5 when using such a strop'for the reason that the structure of the hair side of the leather has a certain inclination somewhat analagous to the pile of a carpet,y so that it offers more friction when the razor is stropped in one direction than in the other.
to provide a leather strop so constructed that it offers an equal amount of friction in either direction. For this purpose I assemble strips of leather turned on edge so that thefhair side is disposed between the faces of the strop, and
fasten them together by suitable means.
With the above and other objects in viewwhich will appear as the description proceeds,v my invention'consists in the construction and arrangement of parts hereinafter shown'and described. In the accompanying drawing which'forms a part of this specication I have illustrated a preferred embodiment ofmy invention, Yin which, Fig. 1 is a perspective View of a stropmade in accordance with my invention; ,y
Fig. 2 is an enlarged cross section onA the line 2 2 of Fig. 1;
Fig.'3 is a similar View on the line 3-3 of Fig. 1;
Fig. 4 is a view similar to Fig. 3, of a strop which is cemented to acanvas backing.
Referring to the drawing, 1 indicates the body of the strop, havingconventionaly holding means 2 and a hand grip 3. The body 1 is y*composed of a series of strips of leather 4 preferably of the same size as shown in Figs. 2, 3 and 4. The hair side of the strips is indicated at 4', which It is an object of this invention thoughv I prefer to sew them together, using a 'flexible wire 5 preferably of brass which forms stitches as indicated at 6. Along the edges of the strop the wire 5 passes transversely through the strips 4 asclearly shown in Fig. 2.
In the modification vshown inY Figs. 3 and 4 I cement the face 12 to a suitable canvas back 7. A strop made in accordance Withthis invention will present a stropping'face 1 or 12 pressing the edges of the strips of leather 4 which oiferA a uniform resistance of friction to the stropping of the razorA in either direction, thus `putting a perfect edgeon a razor.
Various changes may be made in the principles ofthe invention by those skilled in the art without'departing from the spirit ofthe invention as claimed.
I claim: f
1. A razor strop comprising a plurality of leather strips ofuniform size and shape assem-v bled face to face to form smooth upper and lower strop faces with the hair side of the strips disposed betweenthe facesA of the strop, and
means for holding said-strips together. l
2. A razor strop comprising a plurality of leather stripsof `uniform size and shape assembled face r'to face to form smooth upper and lower strop faces with the hair side of the strips disposed between the faces of the strop, said strips ing transversely through the being sewed'together with iiexible material pass-
