Daily - I use the cotton webbing to dry off the blade, and linen to clean the bevel and tune up the edge.
To me - it makes perfect sense to have both in one place, together - just flip the strop and the other surface is ready to go.
Note - both components are terminated with a modified 'Barber's End'; there's no d-ring or fancy handle. Instead, there is a short leather wrap around each component's end.
Professional barbers preferred their strops to be made this way; it allowed them to let go of the strop without having to think twice about it. The strop would just slide silently into place alongside their expensive chair without making noise or creating damage. For the common Joe, this translates into a quieter strop that won't crash into a tile in cheapest the bathroom, or wake anyone up at 6:00 AM.
The white/cream 100% cotton material is vintage NOS fabric.
The heavy linen is current manufacture that's handmade from organic fibers.
The bolster is cut from USA sourced hard-rolled veg tanned horsehide.
