IF EVER USED AT ALL, IT WAS VERY LIGHTLY. GOLD GILT LETTERING ON LEATHER STRAP IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION AS IS THE RED PRINTING ON THE LINEN STRAP. 24 INCHES LONG AND 2.5 INCHES WIDE I KNOW NOTHING AT ALL ABOUT THIS SUBJECT. I HAVE HAD IT HANGING DECORATIVELY FOR A COUPLE OF YEARS AND I DO WANT TO MENTION THAT IT WAS TREATED WITH A LEATHER CONDITIONER ON THE LEATHER PORTION OF THE STROP WHEN I FIRST OBTAINED IT. (It is what I use on leather books to keep the leather flexible. I don\'t know if it is good or bad that I had used it to treat the leather so I am just being up front.) NOTHING WAS USED ON THE LINEN PORTION, WHICH REMAINS AS FOUND.
