Introducing the Armitage x Barnsley Leather Strop
 
The strops are turned here in the factory in Sheffield out of a choice of sustainably sourced woods; Beech, Walnut and Bubinga hand finished with mineral oil to bring out the grain and protect the wood
 
The Flat strop is available in two sizes; small and large and are covered in vegetable tanned russet leather which is ideal for absorbing polishing compound
 
You can also choose to have the leather on one side of the strop grain side out. The grain side of the leather lends itself well to finer compounds and a higher level of polishing, whereas the flesh side is an excellent choice for more abrasive compounds where heavier stropping is required
 
The Flat Strops are suitable for sharpening anything from a clip point up to a head knife
