Stropping Broadheads

[nek4me]

For those of you stropping your BHs for a finishing touch what materials and techniques do you use?

[kevsuperg]

I only started stropping a yr or two ago. Was always a straight of the file guy but stropping sure makes a sharp head.
 I use a soft leather about 8-10" long glued to a 2" wide piece of wood. Works well.

Cardboard works great and it's cheap

Last year I used a pair of old jeans on my grizzlies and it worked great

I use my straight razor strop and use the same regime to sharpen the razor, after using progressive stones first I use chromium oxide paste on the cloth side then finish on a soft leather, works well on the cutthroat single bevels

I have a leather strop that my grandfather used in his shoe shop. It is over  a hundred years old. Still works well.

About 25 years ago I bought a two piece strop from my barber. One is horse hide and the other is heavy linen. It's about 3" wide and 24" long

isn't that what leather arm guards are for?

All metal is sharper after stropping. Any type leather is what I use. Never even heard of anyone using anything else, but if they have good luck w it, God bless em.
I often just lean down and strop on a boot, sometimes a belt.

I use one of those leather pouches for carrying firewood, also works great to lay across my lap for added protection as I'm sharpening my broadheads.

I have a block mounted leather strop that does and great job.
For the past couple of years I have changed how I finish my heads both 2 and 3 blade, once I have my angle and edge and get to the point where many and I used to look for a stopping place, I switch to using descending grits of wet or dry sand paper wet over a glass pane or piece of Lexan. I go from 400 to 600 to 800 to 1000 to 1500 to 2000. My final step is to take a piece of hard flat cardboard (not corrugated but flat) and smear a layer of Mother's Mag-Wheel polish on it and let it dry. Once dry I strop on the polish impregnated cardboard and the finished edge is mirror smooth and beyond razor sharp.

Corrugated cardboard works well.  I also have a piece of leather glued to a block that I use a lot.
