It contains a high concentration of silicate like the premium equine, and is dense, similar to rolled buffalo. However, it is low concentration of oils, which makes the surface less slippery, and offers lots of control during stropping.  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe high silicate concentration makes it very usable without any stopping compound.  But for those who want to load with stropping compound, we have found it takes 5-6K grit compound extremely well.  It’s currently heavily used by Ryky in his latest sharpening kit.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRaw Equine leather contains a high concentration of silicate like the premium equine, and is dense, similar to rolled buffalo.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdeal for loading with 5K - 6K grit compounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOffers lots of control during stropping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpec\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e10 inch: \u003cspan\u003e10\" x 2.5\" (25.5 x 6.4cm)\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e12 inch: 12\" x 3\" (30.5 x 7.6cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComes with slip-free silicone rubber feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePolycarbonate Base\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the standard strop base that we recommend, due to its extreme durability, light weight and aesthetic properties.

White oak is very stable and has great water resistant properties, which makes it well-suited for his strop blocks. Being around an environment where water is the norm, having a hardwood that is resistant to warping is a must. If white oak is good enough to be used on century-old bards and school house exteriors, it is good enough for Ryky's strops. With the same level of attention that he put into everything he designs, all of the corners and edges are hand sanded, and are very comfortable to hold.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhite Oak base is sourced and made in the USA. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThickness: 20mm \/ 0.8\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHinoki Base\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAs one of the most prized types of wood in Japan, it is also referred to as “sacred” wood.
