Thanked: 23Newsprint is a very common stropping material for knife sharpeners. Murray Carter (cartercutlery.com) who is a well known knifemaker and 17th degree Japanese bladesmith (or similar title) just lays a piece of newspaper over his stone. I bet you can cut 50 sheets of newsprint 3"x18" and clamp them together at each end to use as a strop. If you think the top layer is worn or too smooth, just rip it off and use the next one down. I'd almost bet money that would work. I'd almost bet a lot of someone else's money.
