Interchangeable Stropping Panels for Modular Magnetic Paddle Strops
These panels fit both the solid aluminium and the hardwood based paddle strops. They will also fit other items like bench strops (to come!) that have 70mm x 300mm heavy duty magnetic pads fixed to them.
Panels currently available are:
Apart from the first two, these are arranged in approximate order of draw, ie the black or brown juchten leather generally speaking has the most draw, whilst horsehide is very fast and slick with the least draw.
The Hard Wool Felt is used with pastes, powders and sprays. It is particularly well suited to diamond spray products, as the diamond particules sit partly within the surface of the HWF panel and are therefor a little less abrasive.
Each panel is sold individually - the price shown is for one panel.
Please note that these are hand made in England - not assembled by machine - and may have traces of handcrafting such as small tooling marks and other artefacts normally associated with any hand-crafted item.
Leather, being a natural product, may also show some unique traces like small marks and lines - none of which will interfere with stropping.
Packaged weight per panel will be around 325gms.
