Our bestselling sharpening kit now has been given a beautiful hand crafted leather pouch. Made from high quality veg tanned leather 3.5mm (+/-) it has been left in a dark natural russet and measures approx: 145mm x 55mm x 20mm when closed. It’s designed to house a 1 x 5” diamond pocket stone (supplied) and the press stud allows you to open up the case and fasten up the other way to create a hand strop. The strop can be primed with the Tormek before you go on your journey however we do recommend that a protective piece of cloth/tissue paper in placed over the strop to stop any cross contamination with the rest of the leather case. (That’s if you are intending on using the strop as a honing strop if not then don’t put any compound on the strop, just leave it clear).
