About this item

• SPECIAL HONING COMPOUNDS: Softening balm and 4 grits of special Bacher polishing compound are included. Soft and easy to apply, designed to be used especially on leather honing belts and strops. The balm softens and conditions the leather. Thanks to lanoline and beeswax additions. 7g (1/4 oz) each. Approximately grain: Red 2000 (medium), White 5000 (fine), Green 8000 (very-fine), Black 12000 (ultra-fine).
• LARGE AND COMFORTABLE: The big size of the strop and large working surface of the stropping leather provides flexibility when polishing the blade. The length is 320mm (12.6") & width is 60mm (2.36") in total. Working area length is 206mm (8.11") x width is 56mm (2.17"). The double-sided paddle strop has smooth and rough leather to choose from according to your preferences.
• VERSATILE AND EASY TO USE: Apply chosen polishing compound on one or both sides of leather strop. Most customers use white compounds on the rough side while green compounds on the smooth side. You might prefer coarser or finer grit. You can also leave the smooth side free of the compound for ultra-fine touch-ups. Always strop after sharpening your finest stone by pulling the blade backwards with low pressure. It is important to keep the same (or a little bit shallower) angle you sharpen at.
