Hand-made, FSC approved and made by Phipps Leather and Wood in the UK. Two pieces of the leather are used (one on each side) to enable the use of both textured surfaces, one side (rough) for the application of the paste and the other side (smooth) to achieve the final polish.

The Mirror Finishing Paste For Use With Leather Strop

Microfine abrasive paste achieves a mirror finish after initial sharpening using a leather strop. Very fast and gives tools a super keen cutting edge to give clean accurate cuts.

Simply apply the paste to the strop, rub to absorb and then stroke the edge to be polished across the strop until polished clean. The paste is 8,000 - 10,000 grit, and it can be used on a buffing wheel.

Original Formula Lapping Fluid by James Barry Sharpening

Introduced into the woodworking tool industry 25 years ago by James Barry Sharpening, the lapping fluid was been used in the engineering industry for over 35 years. The petroleum-based lapping fluid is the perfect viscosity for diamond sharpening stones. Creating a bind between tool and stone allowing for ideal contact between the two.
