Wicked Industries Wicked Strop WICKSTROP

For knife enthusiasts and sharpening aficionados, the Wicked Industries Wicked Strop is the finishing touch your blades have been waiting for. Constructed with high-quality leather, this strop delivers a dependable surface for polishing the bevel and removing microscopic burrs that sharpening stones alone can’t fully address. Whether you’re refining a recently sharpened edge or maintaining a razor-sharp knife, the Wicked Strop ensures your blades achieve their maximum potential.

After sharpening your blade with stones or films, the strop is used at a slightly lower angle to refine the edge and increase durability. The leather flexes just enough to hug the bevel, smoothing out imperfections while maintaining your chosen cutting angle. Each pass over the strop removes residual burrs, polishes the steel, and ensures that your knife not only cuts with precision but feels effortless in your hand.

The benefits are clear: a properly stropped edge produces what experts call a “hair-popping” sharpness, allowing for clean, precise cuts every time. Micro-serrations are refined, giving your knife a professional-level finish that lasts longer between sharpenings. The Wicked Strop is ideal for kitchen knives, hunting blades, and any high-performance steel you depend on in demanding conditions.

Durability and craftsmanship are central to the design. The leather used is rugged yet responsive, made to withstand repeated use without losing its polishing ability. Whether you’re maintaining a favorite folding knife or preparing a custom chef’s blade for daily use, the Wicked Strop adapts to your sharpening routine and improves the performance of any fine edge.

Accessible and practical, this strop fits seamlessly into any sharpening setup. It’s a must-have tool for anyone serious about blade maintenance, providing consistent results and extending the life of your knives. It pairs beautifully with your sharpening stones, films, and compounds, creating a comprehensive edge maintenance system that’s both professional and approachable.

The Wicked Industries Wicked Strop is the ultimate final step in blade care, combining rugged construction with precise performance to make every knife in your collection cut like new. Polish your edge to perfection with the rugged Wicked Strop—available at SMKW, the World’s Largest Knife Store.
