Leather Knife Sharpening Strop - Handmade in Germany for Chefs & Enthusiasts

About this item

• Handmade in Germany: The original HORL leather is made from vegetable tanned cowhide of highest quality and cutted by hand in the Black Forest, Germany.
• User-friendly: Stroking both edges of the blade against the HORL leather with gentle pressure should be done while keeping the blade angled towards the knife's spine. If you notice a subtle scratching sensation as you glide the blade over the leather, this indicates a burr. Eliminating it can be achieved in just a few strokes with the diamond and honing surfaces of the sharpener. Finally, the knife can be cleaned once more on the HORL Leather.
• Professional finish: Stropping the blade with the HORL Leather gives your blade a professional finish after each sharpening. The finely pored surface of the leather removes even the tiniest particles of grinding residue to ensure a smooth, clean blade.
• High quality: HORL is a German family business that specializes in the manufacture of knife sharpeners and is committed to strict quality requirements. In 2016, Otmar Horl and son Timo founded HORL in Freiburg and focus on combining quality and design for their products. The HORL sharpeners and accessories are produced in the Black Forest make it possible to sharpen a wide variety of kitchen knives easily and precisely for professional-level results in everyday use.
