HORL 3 Leather
Vegetable-tanned leather strop for the final finishing step after sharpening, no honing compound needed

It is a simple addition to the HORL process for cooks who want a cleaner edge after the grinding and honing work is complete.

HORL 3 Leather
How to Use It
No polishing paste or honing compound is required. After sharpening, draw each side of the blade across the leather with light pressure, always moving the cutting edge toward the knife spine. The leather cleans and finishes the edge without adding another abrasive sharpening stage.

Questions answered
Frequently asked questions
What does the HORL Leather do?
It removes residual grinding particles and remaining burr after sharpening, leaving the cutting edge smooth and clean.
Do I need to apply polishing paste or honing compound?
No. HORL specifies that no honing compound is required.
Which direction should I move the knife?
Move the blade so the cutting edge travels toward the knife spine rather than cutting into the leather.
Is the HORL Leather only for the HORL 3?
No. The leather does not attach to the sharpener. It is used directly on the knife after sharpening, so it works with any HORL.
Is this leather included in another HORL product?
Yes. The HORL Leather is one of the three components in the HORL 3 Premium Set.
