Gorgeous! Super look and quality

Just like in old timey barber shoppes the leather strop puts the best finishing edge on a blade. It cleans up the cutting edge and puts a mirrored finish on it with ease. The wood block is sturdy and makes usage very easy.

This Kramer hardwood stropping block with leather stropping is made from the highest quality!

A stropping block is one of the very last steps of knife sharpening. The stropping leather glides away any loose fragments of metal removed during sharpening, much like buffing, it a clean and sharp edge.

If I am going to invest the time to sharpen my goods knives by hand, then I will take the extra few minutes to finish the work properly. The leather stropping block finishes the edge and smooths off residual micro-abrasions for can drag a knife ever so slightly. Go all in if you're going to do it. This leather is clean of any compound and comes mounted on a block so you don't have to. Replacement leathers are available.
