KAI Polishing Strop Set With Beech Wood Strop + Polishing Cream

Kitchen knives are the most important tools of any cook, whether he or she is professional or not. The kitchen knife enables you to transform foods without damaging them and without affecting the taste. It is therefore necessary to treat it with all the necessary care to maintain the quality of their blades throughout the pass of the years.

For this reason, sharpening and polishing are essential stages for maintaining the cutting edge of your knives. The KAI polishing strop set is the perfect tool for this type of work. This set comes with a leather strop and a polishing cream that will leave the edge of your knife’s blade as if it were new!

The leather strop comes from Russian cows, and it has an ergonomic handle made of beech wood. It is complemented with a polishing cream that is rich in chromium oxide. To use them both in the best way possible, we recommend you to follow these steps:

– First, rub the leather with a chestnut of polishing cream, inserting your fingers and massaging uniformly.Afterwards, allow it to dry for at least 5 minutes. This must not be performed at every application. As a matter of fact, this first application may be done during many sharpenings, and postponed when you feel its effect is lessened. 

– Rub your knife on the skin according to the angle you choose on several occasions in the opposite direction of the cut.Perform this action on the other side.Doing this on both sides about a dozen times is enough to increase the sharpness of your knife and leave the edge with a great polished look.

This polishing process is extremely effective, notably because it is the polishing cream is enriched with chromium oxide, which renders its grain extremely small. Therefore, it is very smooth and sharpens knives delicately.
