Review: Better than leather belt strop - This flat base leather strop is an excellent finishing tool and easily one of the most useful additions to my sharpening setup. The included polishing compound is simple to apply and absorbs well into the leather. Once worked in, it makes a noticeable difference in honing the edge. After sharpening, the strop takes the blade from sharp to truly razor sharp. You can feel the refinement immediately. It cleans up the edge, removes any remaining burr, and leaves a smooth, precise finish that cuts effortlessly. The flat base design is a major advantage over a traditional belt strop. The added stability keeps everything controlled and consistent, which makes a big difference when working with very sharp blades. There is no flexing, slipping, or awkward angles to manage. Overall, this strop is well made, effective, and easy to use. It produces real results and feels safer and more reliable than hanging strops. Highly recommended for anyone serious about maintaining a razor sharp edge.
Review: Very good strop that is well made and easy to use. Would use diamond compound with it though. - This strop is a good size for just about any knife including large kitchen knives. The leather seems to be decent though the coarse side does seem like it will wear down easier than the smooth side and not last as long. I did not like the included polishing compound so cleaned that off and instead got some 3-6 micron diamond paste which works much better and is less messy. Using this after sharpening with a KME sharpening system gets a super bright mirror finish on my knives and gets them to be sharper than I ever got them before. Regularly using this strop on them to "top them off" allows me to go longer between sharpening sessions. I hope this strop lasts a long time. It works well and seems to be a good value.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good strop, not my favorite compound
*by J***F on October 6, 2025*

First, you want to use this alongside a real sharpening solution. This isn't going to sharpen your knives, it's just going to polish the edge and make it nice and smooth. So get a whetstone or something else to actually sharpen your knives as a first step. As a polishing strop, I have no problem with this in terms of design or construction. It's well made, the leather feels fine and it has a rubber base so it doesn't slide around. It also fits perfectly into the top of the Sharpal whetstone kit for storage, which is kind of an unadvertised convenience feature. I'm taking a star off for the included polishing compound. Now, this could just be personal preference, but they include a "dry" compound that kind of goes onto the leather like a crayon. It feels just like that. In the pictures on the box, they show completely covering the leather in green compound, which is both really hard to do but also results in essentially what feels like a wax surface. It doesn't even feel like leather anymore. It does seem to work. My knife edges come out looking nice and shiny, so I guess it is removing whatever dust and other material is on the blades. It just has a very waxy, unsatisfying feel, and I'm not convinced it works better than "wet" compounds, or even no compound. The instructions do say that the leather itself is effective for polishing, so don't worry if you miss a spot with the compound. If I had to do it again, I'd probably still buy this but then get a wet compound separately for it. That's obviously an extra expense, though.
