Latthi Leather Strop
Sixty seconds of stropping buys a fortnight of not sharpening.
Nothing is charged here. Orders are confirmed by reply with shipping and payment before anything is taken.
Vegetable-tanned bridle leather on a hardwood paddle, with a bar of 0.5 micron chromium oxide compound. Strop after each service and the stones stay in the drawer.

Keeping this edge
Wash by hand and dry immediately. A dishwasher will not blunt the steel, but it will loosen the handle and dull the finish within a season.
Strop for thirty seconds after heavy use. That single habit pushes a full sharpening out from weekly to roughly every two months.
Return it once a year and we re-profile it to the original geometry free of charge — you cover postage only.
