Mirror finish. Razor sharp.
If I am going to invest the time to sharpen my goods knives by hand, then I will take the extra few minutes to finish the work properly. The leather stropping block finishes the edge and smooths off residual micro-abrasions for can drag a knife ever so slightly. Go all in if you're going to do it.
This leather is clean of any compound and comes mounted on a block so you don't have to. Replacement leathers are available.

Great finishing tool for optimal sharpness
Using Kramer whetstones is a great way to bring back that factory edge on your German and Japanese knives. With the leather stropping block, this is a great finishing tool that will bring out that optimal sharpness you expect to have from your Kramer Damascus or Carbon knives and helps make the edge nice and perfect for use again on your knife.

The final touch on your sharpening
A strop is a smooth surface that is used after the finest grade sharpening stone and is the third and final stage of sharpening your knives. It polishes the knife edge and works off an burr left behind from the sharpening stones. This will reveal the smoothest sharpest edge on your knife.

Better than spit and polish
This is a great way to finish the sharpening process. Perfect for taking off any small burrs and polishing the blade back to the original factory acute edge. The large size of the block will enable you to strop any size blade easily and the leather piece is replaceable for long lasting use.

This is a fabulous way to polish your blades after sharpening or to keep your blade sharp just like a Barber with straight blades for shaving! It’s a good quality leather that really last. Zwilling does sell replacement leathers for this wood block.

This is the perfect end to the sharpening process! Just like the barbers used to do to their blades, this block gives my knives a smooth, polish that makes them incredibly sharp. I definitely feel proud when I've completed the sharpening process.

Remember Grandpa going for his razor shave at the barber shop? This leather stropping is the same concept. It will complete your sharpening to a scalpel like finish. Easy to use and the leather strap can be replaced so great investment.

A stropping block is one of the very last steps of knife sharpening. The stropping leather glides away any loose fragments of metal removed during sharpening, much like buffing, it a clean and sharp edge.

Is there a layer of plastic on the leather? I took off the tape and glued it on to the block but my strop has more of a navy blue color? Also I had difficulties loading it with green compound.
This block is hardwood and leather. There is no plastic.

Does it do any fine sharpening like a strop with compound? And what is the grit? I want to use it To sharpen (not strop) my stright razor. If it doesn’t sharpen, can i still at least use it to strop my stright razor every time before i shave?
This item is for stropping only. For sharpening, you will need to use a stone. We have many options, from coarse to very fine, available here: https://www.zwilling.com/us/search/?q=Sharpening+Stone&lang=en_US
