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.

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.

Mirror finish. Razor sharp.
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.

The final touch on your sharpening
A strop is a smooth surface that is used after the finest grade sharpening stone and is the third and final stage of sharpening your knives. It polishes the knife edge and works off an burr left behind from the sharpening stones. This will reveal the smoothest sharpest edge on your knife.

Remember Grandpa going for his razor shave at the barber shop? This leather stropping is the same concept. It will complete your sharpening to a scalpel like finish. Easy to use and the leather strap can be replaced so great investment.
