Custom Knife Strops from “Wicked Products”

Real men don’t take their knives to be sharpened by a service. Real men use a strop! Check out this small American business: Wicked Products.

Grunts: strop

Wicked Products hand builds custom knife strops. They typically use woods like maple or oak and rawhide leather, but also use rarer types of wood when available. A wide variety of styles and sizes are available: 12″, 18″, 24″, rough leather side up, smooth leather side up, suede- or paracord-wrapped handles, or with attached beads (often skulls). They come with leather lanyards (some with copper lanyard savers), are single- or double-sided, and come pre-loaded with chromium oxide, diamond paste or diamond spray (if you want to really do it up right).

Costs vary from $35 to $200 depending on what options you choose.

Here’s a look at some of their past work:

1. 24″ Double sided smooth/rough with paracord wrapped handle/lanyard with skull bead.

2. 18″ single sided rough with paracord wrapped handle/lanyard with skull bead.
