Our CKTG Kangaroo Strop offers an exceptionally smooth and refined stropping surface for finishing edges to a very high level of sharpness. Kangaroo leather is prized for its tight, consistent fiber structure and soft feel, allowing it to hold fine abrasives evenly while delivering precise, controlled polishing. Backed with a magnetic strip, it attaches securely to our black metal strop base for stable, movement-free use. The strop measures 3 in x 11 in, providing generous surface area while remaining easy to handle.
This leather pairs especially well with fine compounds such as 0.5 micron diamond paste, producing highly polished, aggressive edges capable of extreme cutting performance. The smooth surface allows for even compound distribution and consistent results from heel to tip. Care Instructions: Apply compound sparingly and spread evenly. Avoid excessive pressure while stropping. Remove from the base by lifting from the magnet side rather than the leather to prevent adhesive stress. Store under the base with light pressure applied. If separation ever occurs, a small amount of CA glue can permanently re-secure the magnet backing.

This strop is very smooth, and consistent, feels soft, a pleasure. There's a trick I saw, laying a Kleenex tissue over the deg of a knife, then blowing on it to see if it slices it. With 0.5 micron diamond paste, which the strop apparently likes, I got a knife sharp enough to slice about 3/4 of an inch. So, yeah ... I'm pretty happy with it! (And if they'd restock it, I might buy another one!)

I'm a very beginner in the world of knives, and I watch the sharpening tutorials of Mark Richmond. That's the reason why I bought this strop. I'm not a specialist but after all the sharpening process, stropping the knife on this kangaroo leather, finishes the blade really razor sharp, it's impressive!
