BACHER Premium Leather Strop with Polishing Compound Set, 2 Sided Knife Stropping Block for Sharpening and Honing Knives, Woodcarving Chisels Tools

Not a bad size longer would be better for long blades like my chef knives the 0as5es seem not hard so that a plus the pot sizes again could be larger but all in all nice bit of kit for those why want mirror polish on their tools me I dont care about mirror look i want it to remove micro burr so no metal gets into food or fingers if get knicked testing the edges

Quality and impressive although video not available

The product arrived before the anticipated date and was well packaged, so that was a good start. The strop is beautifully finished and the wood used is beech. The leather panels are a good size and of superb quality. Included were four small pots of polishing compound and some lanolin for dressing the leather. The actual amounts of compound are tiny, but it is enough to get you started and will then allow you to choose what compound to purchase in larger quantities. There is a small instruction leaflet suggesting what compound to apply to each leather panel and how to have the correct blade angle. This wasn't the first time I have used a strop for final sharpening of blades, so I jumped straight in. The results are soon achieved and it really does not take long to obtain a very good edge. I am pleased with this product and would not hesitate to recommend it to others. You owe it to yourself to have the sharpest knives as they actually reduce the risk of injury. They require so much less effort to cut and less pressure means a much smaller risk of a slip.

I have not used yet but the quality looks good and it is a good size. It would be useful if the supplied compounds were given a numerical value as to the grade rather than medium or fine etc. otherwise I am satisfied

Lovely bit of kit not used it yet all my knives been sharpened.but can't wait. To use . Will update when used it . It is very well made and well presented. Definitely recommend

A beautiful hand made honing tool, made in Poland using real leather, responsibly sourced wood and includes 4 types of compound plus leather conditioner. Big thumbs up from me.

I have a small hobby of sharpening knives, although I admit I'm still learning and not quite proficient at it yet. Currently, I use a whetstone with 1000 grit and 6000 grit, and after watching videos, I noticed that many sharpening enthusiasts finish the process with a strop. When I first started using the strop, I made a slight mistake and accidentally cut two lines into the leather, which was entirely my fault. The strop came with small pots of compound, but I haven't had the chance to try them out, as I've only used the strop without any compound. Nevertheless, using the strop has improved my knife sharpening skills to some extent, and I believe it will make an even bigger difference once I become more comfortable with the entire sharpening process. Overall, I would recommend this product to others who are interested in knife sharpening.

I've bought just the leather strop with compounds by Bacher previously and was very impressed. Decided I wanted a double sided one with a handle so got this. Very comfortable to hold and easy to use. The leather is smooth on 1 side and suede on the other. The wood is solid with a high quality finish. If you want to look after your kitchen knives this Bacher strop is an excellent piece of kit.
