Also as RayCLem suggested, I made two homemade bench strops using some scrap hardwood and 2 1/2” leather strips I got from a local leather shop and contact cement. I put CrOx on one and kept the other as is. The leather was cheap and not really of sufficient quality for final stropping of razors, but it allows me to check the edges well enough while honing (and not have to run upstairs where my good strops hang) and works great for knives. Total cost for two 12-inch by 2 1/2 inch strops was about $15.
