Authentic Australian Kangaroo Tail Hanging Strop | High-Tensile Raw Leather
NOT FOR SALE in CALIFORNIA.
Stop rounding your apex on spongy bench strops. Built for pro-level edge refinement, our raw, vegetable-tanned Australian Kangaroo Tail hanging strop delivers the ultimate finishing surface.
Kangaroo tail leather features a unique parallel fiber structure boasting greater tensile strength of standard cowhide. This natural density provides a flat, rigid response under light tension—ensuring you cleanly polish the apex while mitigating edge rolling. Unfinished and beautifully raw, it acts as a flawless substrate for diamond emulsions and fine compounds if you choose. I run mine raw

I'm loving the Kangaroo strop! Yes I've learned the Kangaroo strop is the ideal way to go. I would still like to get another one from you so I have a backup.
I'm very new to the sharpening scene and am trying to get all the preferred equipment.
Your videos are helping me so much and I'm learning new things everyday.

Hello Cory, --- Kangaroo strop report:
First time I used it: Got a customers knife. A Globul 8 " chef knife. It got a BESS score of 1720. Started grinding at 13 degrees. Used a 180 grit cbn then a 400 grit then 800. Then I free handed it on the leather tormek wheel. Got a BESS of 125. Then I stropped it on the kangagoo. Got a Bess score of 85!!! That's the first time I ever got below 100 BESS. Thanks for all your advise and videos and discord!
