RAZOR STROP.

UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JOSEPH R. TORREY, OF WORCESTER, MASSACHUSETTS.
RAZOR- 'STROP.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 244,095, dated my 12, 1881.
Application filed June 8, 1881.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOSEPH It. TORREY, of the city and county of Worcester, and Cominonwealth of Massachusetts, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Razor-Strops; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanyin g drawings, forming apart of ,this specification, in which- Figure 1 represents a top or plan View of a strop embracing my said improvements. Fig. 2 represents an edge view of the parts shown in Fig. 3 and Figs. 3 and 4 represent, upon an enlarged scale, sections on line A B, Fig. }3, looking in the direction indicated by arrow,
To enable those skilled in the art to which my invention belongs to make and use the same, I will proceed to describe it more in detail.
The nature of my invention consists of a cushioned leather stropping-surface in combination with a rigid support, as will be hereinafter more fully described.
In the drawings, the parts marked 0 are the stropping parts, and they are made as follows: A leather case, a, is filled with some elastic stuffing, a, and in this instance a paper case, b, is interposed between the leather casin g a and elastic stuffing a, all as fully shown in Fig. 3 of the drawings.
It will be observed that in Fig. 3 the edges 0 c of the leather casing do not meet but extend under far enough to be fastened by glue or otherwise to the flat sides E of the rigid support E of the strop.
In Fig. 4: is shown a slight modification, in that the edges of the leather casing meet, as shown at e, and when so made the paper casing 1) may be omitted.
The stropping parts 0 being fastened to the flat surfaces of the central rigid support, E, as indicated, the outer rounded edges, d d, form elastic resisting-edges, which, in connection with the more yielding outer central part of the stropping parts 0 C, produce a strop of greatutility. The razor-edge, in the operation (N0 model.)
of stroppin g it, is gradually drawn over one of the spring-edges d, thence across the central soft part, and thence over the spring-edge 01, whereby a very perfect edge can be obtained, even though the razor is quite dull when the operation is commenced. When the side of the razor is pressed upon the outer central surface of the part 0 the inner central part is supported by the rigid part E. Consequently the tendency is to press the stuffing laterally, thereby causing the rounded edges d d to stand and resist the pressure of the blade more effectually, whereby the beneficial action on the edge of the razor is obtained, as before explained.
If preferred, the central part may be made wide, and its outer edges properly covered to form hone-surfaces. In this instance the stropping parts 0 G are made in one piece, drawn over the central part, E, and then fastened at f to the handle part I), as indicated in the drawings. Any other proper mode of fastening the parts 0 O at the ends of the part E may be adopted however.
As the parts (1 are connected to the central part, E, along their centers, the rounded edges are kept elevated outward and upward in a curved or rocker form to receive, support, and sharpen the edge of the razor-blade, as hereinbefore set forth.
The inner surface of the leather case (b may be fastened to the rigid central support, E, to a greater or less extent; but I prefer the construction indicated in the drawings, which show it fastened along the central portion only.
Having described my improved razor-strop, what I claim therein as new and of my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, 1s-
The combination, with the central rigid support, E, of a cushioned stropping part, 0, centrally connected to and supported by the rigid part E, substantially as and for the purposes set forth.
