Naniwa Natural Leather Knife Strop IU-1100

Use this product for finishing to obtain the finest long-lasting sharpness. The smooth leather on the surface of the strop can neatly remove the minute burrs that form on the edge of the knife (called Kaeri in Japanese), resulting in a very sharp edge. It is most effective when used after a finishing whetstone.
