Handcrafted in Germany: The authentic HORL leather is crafted from vegetable tanned cowhide of superior grade and hand cut in the Black Forest, Germany.
Easy to use: Strop both sides of the blade with a slight pressure on the HORL leather, always swiping the blade towards the knife‘s spine. If you feel a slight scratching when you pull the blade over the leather, this is a sign of burr. Removing it only requires a few movements with the diamond and the honing side of the sharpener. The knife can then be wiped again over the HORL Leather.
High quality: HORL is a German family business that specializes in the manufacture of knife sharpeners and is committed to strict quality requirements. In 2016, Otmar Horl and son Timo founded HORL in Freiburg and focus on combining quality and design for their products. The HORL sharpeners and accessories are produced in the Black Forest make it possible to sharpen a wide variety of kitchen knives easily and precisely for professional-level results in everyday use.
Professional finish: Stropping the blade with the HORL Leather gives your blade a professional finish after each sharpening. The finely pored surface of the leather removes even the tiniest particles of grinding residue to ensure a smooth, clean blade.
