Frequently Asked Questions

How do I use a sharpening strop?

Lay the blade flat on the leather, then slightly raise the spine until you reach the bevel angle. Then pull the blade, cutting towards the back, as if you were stroking the leather: avoid pushing the edge against the leather, at the risk of nicking it. Make a few light passes on each side, alternating. About ten passes are generally enough to sharpen an edge that is starting to lose its bite, without removing metal from the cutting edge or changing its angle.

Should sharpening compound be applied to the leather?

It is not mandatory. Used bare, the leather gently straightens the edge and is suitable for regular maintenance. Loaded with fine compound, it becomes slightly abrasive and polishes the edge further, which can be useful after a finishing stone. To start, using bare leather remains the simplest and safest option while you master the angle. In any case, keep a light pressure to avoid rounding the knife's edge.
