You will be amazed at how a few strokes on this strop will return a dull edge to perfect sharpness. Home cooks will be especially pleased with the ease and efficiency of the stropping process. Even those with little sharpening experience will find the use of a strop to be the easiest way of maintaining a fine edge on their blade.

Leather strops and slurries.Posted By: Rick - verified customer

I enjoy the convenience of the magnetic leather strop and base, for me the diamond strop polishing slurries are the best at removing metal and polishing the edge. For my experience, they are superior to the "green" metal polishing compound in that they work much faster and effectively. I use the strops and slurry for finishing the polish on the edges of my knives, but also restoring a nice edge on my wood working hand plane irons and chisels. I used mostly the 1 micron slurry, but I am going to experiment with the finer slurries.I plan on setting up leathers for each slurry size.

I used to use a honing rod, but now I prefer this method. Just a few passes on both sides yields great results that I find is better and more consistent. Thank you, Mark, for your advice and recommending this product.

I love the CKTG magnetic strop system. I had been using the denim strop and
wanted to try the leather. This one does an ok job but there are some high spots in the leather. They show up as graying dots. It does an ok job but not as good of quality as everything else i have purchased from here.

Got the magnetic base a couple a years ago and my first strop have since suffered a lot with my first unexperienced uses of it. So a got another one That last finishing touch gives a truly remarkable edge to all of my knives. Cannot sharpen without it. I like the magnetic part of it very stable.

This is the second bovine strop I bought from mark because my other one was cut into pretty badly but there is nothing bad to say about this strip it's hard enough to not accidentally put a overly convex edge on your knives but still soft enough to take the geometry of your knife and it works great by itself and especially when loaded with 1 micron elmision it puts a hair shaving sharp edge on it and quickly touches up my aogami super and white
