Knife Strop

[KBamhi]

If I were to purchase but one strop for touching up an edge, what would you recommend and where can I obtain it. Since this really won't be utized often I prefer an economical model and don't want to spend an arm and leg.

Thanks guys.

It's surprisingly easy to make one. And a LOT cheaper. Even pre-made strops at 'reasonable' prices probably cost at least 4 times what you'd spend, if you make one yourself.

Here's a very informative thread on how to make one:

If you have any other questions, post 'em here. You'll get LOTS of good advice and ideas.
