Product Overview

These strops were made with portability in mind, for you need a quick edge touch up in the field. The leather is mounted onto a piece of .125" Micarta, and features serrations that give you a lot of grip in a small package. Available loaded with Green Stropping Compound, or Bare if you would like to apply your own.

What is a Strop exactly?

A strop is a piece of leather with a micro abrasive infused into the fibers of the leather. When sharpening your knife with an abrasive stone or rod, it will leave a very small "burr" on your knife edge. This is a microscopic piece of the knife steel that is still remaining on the edge, and needs to be removed from the edge as the final step of sharpening. After using your knife for various tasks, the edge will dull on the high points of its edge. When in the field, you can use the strop to polish your edge, and regain some of that sharpness. By periodically stropping your knife, your cutting edge will last longer before it will need a resharpened.

    This is the perfect addition to my kit. I had never owned or used a strip before and this out a razor’s edge simply and quickly on my knives. And it’s as compact as can be while still being perfectly efficient. Highly recommend!

    If you use strops to keep your knives razor sharp, as I do, these are for you.
    I’ve bought several. Always have two handy on outdoor trips. I get them unloaded and carry two. One I load with black compound for a serious start, and the other with fine green compound for fast touch ups. They work beautifully, take up little space and are very well made.
    Don’t hesitate to buy these. They’re wonderful tools
