As an industry expert, I can confidently say that even the best and most expensive knives will eventually become dull and require sharpening. Though it may initially seem daunting, the process can be simple with a bit of practice and patience. With our sharpening strops, maintaining a sharp blade edge is easily achievable.This leather strop is expertly designed for the final honing stage of kitchen knives, maintaining sharpness for weeks without the need for sharpening steel or bench stones. The slim shape mirrors that of a traditional sharpening steel, while the hardwood construction provides durable support. Made from genuine cowhide leather, this paddle strop is suitable for a variety of materials, including Aluminum, Stainless, and High Carbon Steel. The ergonomic handle makes it easy to use the two-sided strop comfortably and flexibly. To achieve a ultra-fine touch-up, apply compound to one or both sides of the leather, leaving the smooth side untouched. Always strop your knife with low pressure and maintain the same or slightly shallower angle used for sharpening.
