Oh man. This is brilliant. Now all I gotta do is find something I can attach it to permanently in my bathroom for my straight razor. Thanks for the idea! GENIUS!

En las ferreterias de México, donde venden brocas, piedras para esmeril de banco, etc., venden las barras de pasta para pulir metales , son como lingotes de unos 25x4x4 cms., hay blanco y verde los 2 son finos el que encuentres te servira, no son caros y por el tamaño duraran bastante, saludos.
Do the layers of leather spin as one with only the pressure of being held between the two washers. Another video shows the layers glued together with Titebond glue. I have reservations about the glue between the layers being part of what is honing my tools. I was thinking of contact cementing the layers within a 1/4-1/2” of the outter edge of the disc. Any input would be helpful. What you built seems to work well…maybe no glue needed…
that is not the way to strop a blade,you have no proper control to put the razer edge on your blade,use a proper strop for best results...clever idea but as a strop wheel totally useless.
Thanks for the time on your video, that leather strop works great. I have enjoyed all your vids and looking forward to your next one.

thx, dude.
have a nice day
That was very impressive.
Amazing!
Simply but effective. Thank you
Simple, but excellent design.
Awesome work I need to make one of these. Currently use a buffing wheel to strop my knifes. Do you think this works better than MDF wheel?

amazing😁😁
Nice video but the music is absolutely annoying...
I muted the sound and played some Beethoven.
Wait what - there was ... music? :-)
Geko on Crete,that's a great tool
How many disks of leather did you use? Are they glued together or held by the shaft?
What’s better paper sharpening wheel or leather stripping one?
can you please provide the link to buy that leather sheet
Simple!
you could also make stroping wheel from cardboard,works well. Great videos,best regards
I might have to give that a try, I have shit ton of boxes laying around but how are you going to load the green compound without it collapsing?
impressing
Hey Geko
Bist du noch zufrieden mit dem Lederrad? Und wasfür eine Paste benützt du?
what kinda leather is this and where to get it ? Thx
Great video thanks...ps very scary music!
What do you call this clamp that holds the drill and where can I get one ?
03:09 First vapor slice ever recorded. Sliced the paper on the atomic layer like obsidian.
why is leather ? not other material for sharpening your knife? such as stone , what are the benefits?

Music Name?
SHORT SWEET AND SHARP.
Anyone who would treat a good knife this way shouldn't be allowed to own a butter knife.
The music's not only horribly loud and annoying, but also full of aggression!
No music !
Esta gente teniendo boca no habla no explica, q materiales se necesita, para elaborar esta herramienta de trabajo.! No apoyo!

The music is Horrific

Was it really necessary to have that aweful "music" set so loud?
If you can't explain what you are doing then don't post your videos there's a time and place for music
If you can't follow without someone spoon-feeding you, then quit UA-cam and go back to using a pacifier.
HATE THE MUSIC!!!!! So I dind't watch the whole video!!
