Strop Board
Product information "Strop Board"
Strop Board
for polishing and stropping of swivel knife blades, round knives or other sharp blades. The strop board is a good alternative to a sharpening stone from our range as it is quite easy to handle.
Our strop board consists of a wooden handle with firmly applied leather strips on both sides. One side with full grain leather (smooth), one side with split leather (rough) for a fine and a coarser polish.
Use:
- For the first time use, please apply our jeweler's rouge to the leather first.
- Make sure that the blade to be polished already has a good ground finish. The stropping is used to constantly sharpen and polish the blade (for example, before or after each use of the swivel knife). The difference is noticeable with each cut.
- Draw the knife evenly over the with jeweler's rouge treated leather with the back side first.
- Pay attention to an angle already given to the cutting edge (about 15° - 20°, see figures 3 and 4)
Dimensions:
- Overall dimensions: L: 22.5 cm x W: 4.3 cm x H: 1.3 cm
- Leather stripes dimensions: L: 14.0 cm x W: 4.0 cm x H: 0.2 cm

Jeweler`s Rouge, 50 gr. in 5 different grits
Please apply the jeweler's rouge to a piece of thin cardboard (e.g., photo cardboard), leather, or our strop board. It is not necessary to dilute these or to change their consistency. Simply take the piece of abrasive paste wrapped in paper out of the plastic tube and tear off a piece (about 1 cm) of the paper around it. Now pull the blade to be sharpened, at a uniform angle and moderate pressure over the applied jeweler's rouge. The result is a dark grinding abrasion.
We recommend our sharpening tool for our swivel knife blades.Available options: - green (extra fine): suitable for a final high gloss polish. - white (fine): standard grit, suitable for polishing and resharpening between operations of knives and swivel knife blades. - red (medium): suitable for grinding slightly blunt knives and swivel knife blades. - brown (coarse): suitable for regular sanding and the removal of light scratches and rust marks from knives and swivel knife blades. - gray (extra coarse): suitable for coarse pre-sharpening of heavily rusted knives and swivel knife blades.
When ordering 1 piece, you will receive 1 abrasive paste of the selected grit grade.
