Nice, A great size for pocket knives

[@bustinout]

Thanks! It should be sufficient enough for pocket knives, axe bits, and a number of things.

Great video mate. May I suggest sticking the board to the leather and then cutting the leather to fit the board? That way if you’re slightly off in sticking it down, it won’t matter.

[@bustinout]

yeah it can also be done like that. I just didn't want to get glue on the leather I might use on something else.

[@jasonedwardledburynewzeala9897]

What type of leather was that?

[@bustinout]

I believe that was Hermann Oak veg tan

How much better wld u say a strop makes an edge .

[@bustinout]

I can take a knife from only popping a few hairs to cleanly shaving my arm with a strop. I feel like it’s either the last step in knife sharpening or the best tune up for a knife edge. So I’ll say it makes a world of difference

[@tomfoolery2082]

Tht is quite a difference . Thx ,

[@bustinout]

Give it a try man. I know some people don’t see the use in it, but it also cuts down on sharpening the blade if you just hit it on the strop instead of the stone
