BeaverCraft Stropping Leather Strop for Knife Sharpening Strop LS2P1 - Knife Stropping Kit 3 x 8 IN - Knives Sharpener with Honing Strop Polishing Compound Set - Double Sided

Great for polishing nibs. Good quality. I cut a little slit into it so I could get into the hard to reach places.

Excellent Strop. Takes over after a fine stone and gets an edge shave sharp. Nice flat (and smooth) piece of leather. Works great!

The BeaverCraft LS2P1 Stropping Leather Strop stands out for its excellent leather thickness and reversible design, making it an ideal size for bench stropping. The leather feels substantial and performs very well for refining and maintaining sharp edges. Out of the box, the only drawback is that the strop can slide around during use. To solve this, I mounted it to a wooden base using contact adhesive and added a non-slip backing. Since I primarily strop on the suede side, I glued it suede-side up—and the result is fantastic. It’s now a rock-solid bench strop that I reach for after every sharpening session. Overall, this is a high-quality strop with excellent leather, and with a simple mounting solution, it becomes an outstanding bench sharpening tool.

It's not like the old barber shops with the long belt but this is better than decent for my kitchen and utility knives. After running them though the honing process I give them a few swipes on this leather and they are better than new. I'm new at all this but adding the strop to the process seems to have really helped with a very sharp edge.

Works well. Nothing to dislike as it is just thick leather. The compound works well and they bring my blades to a nice polish. Easy to use.

Bought this as part of a bundle deal. Much higher quality than others costing more. Bundle with the paddle strop

Smell VERY strong of gas, thinner, or other noxious chemical such that had to immediately wash it with soap and water and about 1/2 the smell but still not able to have indoors so left outside in the sun to "off gas" and it was a little better. However, I would NOT recommend this be kept indoors because of the smell. I leave it in the garage with the other chemicals and use it there or outside. Since I have 400, 1000, and 6000 grit diamond sharpening stones already I don't know if this actually helps; after using the diamond sharpening stones the knives are very sharp and do not see / feel a difference after using this chemical strap. Giving 3 stars because the experts say it helps to use leather and this appears to be real leather and thus I guess it does what is intended.

Good quality

Brilliant for the price, works exactly as expected.

Just the right size for stropping blades

ottimo strop, largo il giusto per le la me delle pialle. il compound ha un coloraccio verde chiaro ed è arrivato rotto ma quello è il trasporto ..

Väldigt liten skall tilläggas. Men annars som förväntat. Även snabb relevans

Didn’t appear to be double-sided. Seemed to be mounted to on some synthetic material which didn’t matter to me since I attached it to a board as a strop. But l believe it shouldn’t be called double-sided.
