Thread: Surrely I'm not the only one.

I use my SRD's strop to keep my pocketknife sharp....anyone else use their strop for the same?

I have several strops for usage on my knives, but I don't use them for my razors.

i use my knife bench strops on my straight razors

Most pocket knives you wouldn't want as sharp as a straight so I wouldn't think a strop would do much for them. For kitchen cutlery a sharpening steel is probably the equivalent.

No,,,,,,,,,,,,,

No, I use the back of my belt for that.
And don't call me Shirly.

No , I have enough strops to go around. I even have my own strop solely for my razors.

Apparently you are the only one!

I don’t want to sound mean but what advantage is there to stropping a pocket knife?

My pocket knives are as sharp as I can possibly get them. And I keep them that way. I use a strop on them often. A dull knife, unless it's a butter knife, has no purpose or use. MHO.

If you go on a knife forum you will see many people use strops on there knives. Pasted, naked, hanging, paddle, ect.
