Kangaroo Strop is an efficient way of final polishing a cutting edge using Hapstone or Edge Pro knife sharpener. The working surface is made of vegetable tanned kangaroo leather mounted on a 5 mm thick aluminum blank. Color variations have no effect on stropping.
Working with kangaroo leather is similar to working with cow leather. A kangaroo strop enhances the cutting edge by correcting small nicks and smoothing grooves. Gently slide the cutting edge over the strop, repeating 20-30 times for each side of the blade. The motion should avoid damaging the leather with the cutting edge.
The Kangaroo Strop is a versatile and effective tool for honing and polishing knife edges. The vegetable-tanned kangaroo leather provides a smooth, consistent surface that can help refine the edge of a blade, removing any small imperfections or unevenness. Unlike other stropping materials, the color variations in the kangaroo leather do not affect its performance, making it a reliable option for professionals and enthusiasts alike.
Using the Kangaroo Strop is a simple and straightforward process. After sharpening the knife using a Hapstone or Edge Pro sharpener, gently slide the cutting edge over the strop, repeating the motion 20-30 times on each side of the blade. This gentle stropping action helps to further refine the edge, removing any residual nicks or grooves and leaving the blade with a polished, razor-sharp finish.
The Kangaroo Strop's construction, with the vegetable-tanned leather mounted on a sturdy aluminum blank, ensures a stable and durable working surface. This stability allows for consistent and controlled stropping, helping to maintain the desired edge geometry and angle. The kangaroo leather's unique properties, including its strength and flexibility, make it an ideal material for this application, providing a smooth and effective stropping experience.
Whether you're a professional chef, a passionate outdoorsman, or a hobbyist knife enthusiast, the Kangaroo Strop is a valuable addition to your sharpening arsenal.
