I just got a leather strop for the first time in my sharpening journey and what a difference!

I sharpened all the straight edge knives at my in-laws before Thanksgiving Day and finished them with the strop and compound. Unreal!

I'll post links to what I used if it's allowed.

I know its nothing fancy, but it's a huge step up from the no-name, no-info stone I picked up from a restaurant supply shop years ago. I'll keep y'all posted on my adventures.

Also, where is everyone?
