The Kangaroo Strop for Edge Pro 1" x 6" offers an ultra-fine stropping surface designed for maximum refinement and compound performance. Kangaroo leather is exceptionally smooth and dense, thinner than most leathers, which helps minimize unintended edge convexing while maintaining excellent control. It readily accepts compounds and provides a consistent, smooth draw during use.
Kangaroo leather excels with ultra-fine abrasives, especially 0.125 micron and below, because it contributes virtually no abrasion of its own and allows the compound to do the work. It remains strong and durable despite its thin profile. Each 1" x 6" strop is mounted on a precision aluminum blank for a perfect fit on Edge Pro systems. Care Instructions: Apply compound sparingly and spread evenly. Use light pressure while stropping. Avoid overloading with abrasive. Store flat and keep dry. Clean gently if needed before switching compounds.

Wow, this strop works great. Normally I use a 1000 grit edge pro stone followed, 2000 grit polish tape, then finish with a free hand strop with some green compound. Just tried this with some 1 micron diamond spray, and I'm impressed. I get a much nicer edge with this and the diamond compound.

The Kangaroo strops are worth every penny. They are a high quality stropping substrate. The stiction produced when used with the edge pro produces a heavy burnishing effect in conjunction with the effect of the stropping compound you are using.This finely grained leather is stretched tautly across the aluminum backing. This produces a strop with very little give , greatly reducing the risk of rounding off your edge. I use mine with CBN , these make a great finishing step for all knives.

Kens strops are amazing. And the Kangaroo is no exception. It is extremely thin, and has almost no give, thus making your chances of micro convexing your edge very small. Compounds work fantastic on it as well. Highly recommended. I do prefer the 2x6 size for freehand stropping.

What an amazing strop! Despite the 1 x 6 format it works very well for freehand stropping, even on large knives. Not surprising I guess since it was developed by a guy that sharpens gyutos on Post-It Note. :-)

Yes, this Kangaroo is something to hop around about! I use it to finish my straight razor, and I'm completely blown away by my results. Use it with nothing on it after your compounds. It keeps an edge that I trust on my face, day in and day out.
