Knife stropping board from cutting board

Post by TripleF »

Picked this small cutting board up at an estate sale for $.25
Used a couple pieces of belt leather and Gorilla glue and made a stropping board.

Nice, when I make stropping boards for my wood carving knives I use double stick carpet tape. Watch the free boxes at garage sales for leather belts. As for gorilla glue it seems to dry out inside the bottle soon after opening, Is their a trick as little bottles cost more?

The trick to gorilla glue for me is to buy Loctite super glue.
Cool strop idea!

Cool way to recycle a cutting board and belt. I am guessing that the knife is a reprofiled butcher knife, too.

I suggest you Google "Cutting Board and Knife Set" because just from that short description it's difficult to tell what you have in mind.
