Beavercraft LS5P1 Wood Carving Strop Set with Spoon Carving Knife and Leather Sheath

This multipurpose strop is designed to keep your blades at peak performance. Crafted as a versatile professional hook knife sharpening and honing system, the double-sided strop offers two distinct functions - the leather side for polishing and the replaceable sandpaper side for light sharpening.

The paddle design may seem a bit unconventional, but it serves a crucial purpose. Much like a traditional razor strop, this tool is used to put an exceptionally fine edge on your curved blade. To achieve the sharpest possible edge, you'll want to use the leather strop side in conjunction with a polishing compound. The rough leather surface, when used with the polishing compound, effectively removes hardened steels.

The strop comes complete with a bar of BeaverCraft green-gray polishing compound, which adheres to the leather surface when rubbed into it. It's worth noting that the color of the polishing compound (green or gray) does not affect its sharpening, honing, or polishing capabilities - they are all equally effective for your knives and cutting tools. Additionally, two spare sheets of sandpaper are included for the replaceable sharpening side.

This high-quality tool is proudly manufactured in Ukraine, a country renowned for its beautiful landscapes. The SK1 spoon carving knife, one of the first models created by the brand, is specifically designed for beginners. However, even experienced wood carvers can benefit from this versatile tool.

Regardless of your skill level, the paddle strop is a valuable asset for maintaining sharp spoon carving tools. The unique design ensures that your blades are always in top condition, allowing you to create stunning spoons, bowls, cups, and other rounded edge carvings with ease.

The knife's curved blade is complemented by an ashwood handle, finished with natural oil. This ergonomic design allows you to work for extended periods without experiencing hand fatigue, ensuring a comfortable and efficient carving experience.

In summary, this multipurpose strop is a versatile and essential tool for wood carvers of all skill levels. Crafted with European quality in Ukraine, it combines a leather strop for polishing and a sandpaper strop for light sharpening, helping you maintain the peak performance of your curved blades. Whether you're a beginner or an advanced carver, this tool will undoubtedly become an indispensable part of your workshop.
