RAZOR STROP.
APPLICATION IILED JAN. 14, 1910.

GARLAND E. MARTIN, or NORFOLK, vrncmmr RAZOR-STROP.
Application filed January 14, 1910. Serial No. 538,068.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GARLAND E. MARTIN, a citizen of the United States, residin at Norfolk, in the county of Norfolk and tate of Virginia, have invented a new and useful Razor-strop, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to razor strops.
The ordinary types of strops utilizing flexible members designed to be held at one end by a supporting nail or the like and to be grasped at the other end by the hand of the operator, have been found objectionable because the side portions of the flexible members tend to sag when the razor is pressed upon the device and, as a result, the edge of the razor is not rubbed uniformly throughout its length. Moreover it has been dlflicult to prevent the strop from buckling while in use.
One of the objects of the present invention is to avoid the objections above enumerated and to provide the strop with a pliable fillin or reinforce of wood, metal or other suitab e material and which constitutes an efiithroughout its width, thus preventin uckling of the strop or sagging of the e ge portions thereof.
Another object is to provide improved means for connecting the parts of the strop andfor attaching said strop to a supporting device.
With these and other objects in view the invention consists of certain novel details of construction and combinations of parts hereinafter more fully described and pointed out in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings the preferred form of the invention has been shown.
In said drawings, Fi re 1 is a perspective view of a strop em odying the present improvements, a portion of the sheathing of the reinforce being broken away. Fig. 2 is an enlarged section on line A-B Fig. 1.
Referring to the figures by characters of reference 1 :and 2 designates spaced similar plates connected by an integral arched extension 3 in which is swiveled an eye 4 designed to en age a suitable supporting device. The p ates 1 and 2 have a clamping bolt 5 extending through the centers thereof and the end of which is engaged by a thumb nut 6.
Projecting between the plates 1 and 2 are the two flexible members constituting the body portion of the strop, one of these 'memin the construction and arrangemento with, a
hers being in the form of a leather strip 7 while the other member is in the form of a sheath 8 of canvas or the like, one end of the sheath extending between the lates 1 and 2 while the other end thereof is astened to a tab 9 of leather or other suitable material and which constitutes a grip or handle. The adjoining end of the strip 7 may be shaped to correspond with the tab 9.
A pliable strip 10 of metal, wood, orany other suitable material is fitted tightly within the sheath and extends from the tab 9 to the plates 1 and 2, the opposed faces of this stri being flat and forming smooth backing aces on which the workin portions of the sheath rest. The strip 10 t us serves to reinforce the sheath and .as it extends throughout the width thereof, it will be apparent that downward pressure ofa razor against the sheath will be resisted to the same extent throughout the width of the strop. The uniform sharpening of the razor edge is thus insured.
The particular means employed for attaching the members 7 and 8 together at their upper ends is deemed of im ortance because of its simplicity and durability and further because by swiveling the eye t therein the strop can be readil reversed so as to bring either the member or the member 8 uppermost. I
By mounting the reinforce 10 within a sheath or tube, lateral displacement of the reinforce relative thereto 1s prevented and there is no danger of the razor coming into contact with the reinforce as would be the case should such lateral displacement occur.
Various changes can of course be made f the parts without de arting from the spirit or sacrificing an o the advantages of the inve'ntion as de ned in the appended claims.
'What is claimed is 1. A razor strop including a flat tubular sheath of flexible material and having parallel workin faces, and a continuous .flat flexible rein orcing strip concealed within the sheath and extending throughout the width of the interior thereof,'-said.strip constituting means for preventing sagging of the edge'portions ofthe sheath when subjected to pressure.
2. A razor strop including clamping plates, an arcuate connection integral theresupport engaging member .swiveled rny own, I have hereto aflixed my signature in the presence of two witnesses. A
