Repeat several times on each side of the blade to polish the edge. When to use the Knife Strop    Your tools can be kept sharp by using the Knife Strop periodically as you cut. A few moments taken to maintain the edge will save time & frustration & keep your tools in top working order. On softer woods, a few strokes should be given to each side of the blade every 20 - 30 mins. For carving harder materials, the frequency or number of strokes should be increased.  Product Title Overall Size Model # Flexcut Paddle Strop ~ PW16 10" Long  x  3" Wide  x  3/4" thick PW16      For California Residents:    WARNING: Cancer & Reproductive Harm - www.P65Warnings.ca.gov    WARNING: Drilling, sawing, sanding or machining wood products can expose you to wood dust, a substance known to the State of California to cause cancer.
