For those starting out on a budget, a paddle strop is a great choice for a straight razor. They also work incredibly well for stropping knives and axes. The robust bridle leather will work for decades, and the rough suede is great for mounting a stropping compound onto, like chromium oxide.

A strop is a must for your blade. By stropping properly on a regular basis, you can avoid sharpening your razor as often and help it last longer. Sorta like brushing your teeth often to help you avoid the dentist.

  • Strops can get dry, so be sure to moisturize it a couple times a year with leather cream.
  • This strop is two-sided. Use the rougher side, followed by the smoother side.

Great value

"I took Knifeware’s sharpening class and bought the strop afterwards. The person teaching us was exceptional in his teaching and showed the value of using the strop."

I took the knife sharpening

"I took the knife sharpening course and bought products afterwards. Course was fantastic, had an amazing/fun instructor and learned a lot. I would recommend this course to anyone who has any interest in knives. The strop is incredibly durable and easy to use. Really finishes the sharpening process and puts a nice polished edge on the blade. Thanks again to the guys who helped me through the process!!!! Amazing team!!!"

Q&A

Do I have to use chromium oxide on the suede side? Thanks.
Hey Nick, you don't have to, the suede works great on it's own! The Chromium Oxide is awesome if you want additional polishing power from your strop.
Hello What are the dimensions of the leather/suede sections of the strop?
Hey there, they are: 28 x 6.5cm! Let me if you'd like to know anything else! - Ellie
No more stock in edmonton? I wanted to buy one and also the green thing that you need to apply to the strop.
We have some en route right now - we should have them distributed to all the shops in the next few weeks. Sorry about the delay on these guys!
For daily maintenance between sharpening, can I just use a double sided strop or do I need to incorporate the ceramic rods as well?
I would use a rod as well, they work quicker. But if you just want to go with the strop, they are great, you'll just need to spend a little extra time stropping the knife, than you would honing on the rod. - Ellie
