Polishing + Finishing

Brand: HI-CONDITION ハイコンディション
Producing Area: Tokyo/ Japan
Size: 10"L x 2"W x 1"D
Weight: 350g

Really high quality, bare hard felt strop on a firm base so it has no give.

Felt strops will be slightly more efficient at cleaning up edges post sharpening/maintaining than leather, and you could certainly finish off of them. Ideal for softer western knives, butcher knives, and other higher-volume knives.

Use only an edge-trailing/draw stroke. Can be loaded with micron abrasive pastes or sprays. Clean periodically with a slightly damp rag, allow to dry before using.
