Machined for stability and consistency, the Aluminum & Leather Strop is built for users who want absolute control during final edge refinement. The handle is CNC-machined from 6061 aircraft-grade aluminum, giving it a substantial, premium feel in hand and exceptional flatness across the stropping surface. The added weight helps the strop stay planted, allowing for steady, repeatable passes without flex or chatter.

The stropping surface uses vegetable-tanned cowhide leather, bonded with industrial-grade adhesive for long-term durability. It’s sized for real sharpening workflows, and is optimized for diamond emulsion compounds, like Stroppy Stuff. When the leather eventually wears, it can be cleanly peeled off and replaced, extending the life of the strop indefinitely.

Thoughtful handle geometry keeps your fingers safely away from the blade edge while stropping, making this a reliable choice for both experienced sharpeners and those refining their technique. Built to last, built to perform, and built to stay flat.

Cleaning & Maintenance

If you plan to switch compounds or if the strop becomes contaminated, cleaning is recommended to maintain consistent performance.

Start by wiping the leather surface with a paper towel to remove excess compound. For deeper cleaning, a white vinyl eraser can be used to lift most remaining compound and is safe for the leather.

If additional cleaning is needed, 70% isopropyl alcohol may be used sparingly. Lightly spray the alcohol onto a towel and gently wipe the leather surface.

Do not soak the strop. Allow the leather to fully air dry before applying a new compound.
Do not soak the strop in water.
Do not use harsh solvents such as acetone, brake cleaner, or lacquer thinner, as these will damage the leather and adhesive.

Proper care will extend the life of the leather and ensure reliable stropping results over time.
