Stropping is the final stage in the sharpening process. The grinding has been done. The honing has been done - all three stages of honing. Now it's time for the finishing step; the stropping, the step that polishes the cutting edge. That's the step that makes the difference between a professional job and a close-but-no-cigar job.
The Strop Shop® uses the stropping process to put a gleaming edge on knives and tools and that's why they cut like they're supposed to. Like they did when they were brand new.
The Strop Shop® uses the latest and best equipment on the market for sharpening, including a hand operated machine equipped with water stones for knives, a multi-purpose scissors sharpener and a very versatile machine that sharpens saw chains, chisels, hatchets, mower blades, and other rough work. The idea is to do the best job of sharpening possible without removing any more metal than is necessary to extend the life of the items being sharpened.
