With a precise 0.4-0.6 micron grit, it delivers a mirror-like finish while conditioning leather strops with beeswax and lanolin. Suitable for knives, razors, chisels, and even metal polishing, this 3.53 oz tin includes a leather applicator and lasts for up to 100 uses, making it a must-have for professionals and enthusiasts seeking flawless edges and long-lasting strop care. ## Description Bacher Stropping Compound - 3.53 oz - Black Ultra Fine 12000 Honing Paste | Beeswax & Lanolin Strop Care | Knives, Straight Razors, Chisels | Soft, No Heat | 0.4-0.6 Micron | 50-100 Coats | Applicator: desertcart.com: Tools & Home Improvement ## Features - SOFT PASTE, NO HEATING - Bacher spreads onto a leather strop in seconds with a few light strokes, because it is a genuinely soft paste and not a hard block that has to be warmed up or forced into the leather. Three steps and you are done: lay a thin film on with a spatula or with the applicator disc, then draw the blade along the loaded surface in both directions until the film looks even. An extra high content of abrasives works fast, and our in-house micron sieve process holds particle size to a narrow band from tin to tin, so you get a uniform cut instead of random deep scratches. One tin covers about 50 to 100 applications. A hairdryer is optional, never required. - CONDITIONS THE LEATHER - Beeswax and real lanolin are blended into the formula, so every pass feeds the leather instead of drying it out. This leather safe formula maintains the naturally supple surface of strops, paddles and razor strops that dry, hard abrasives leave stiff and glazed. It also increases drag on the blade, and that extra drag is what gives you control over the angle and a cleaner, more effective finishing stroke on every pull. A strop that stays flexible loads more evenly the next time, which is why the same piece of leather keeps working for years. - ULTRA FINE 12000 GRIT - This black grade works at 0.4 to 0.6 microns and is the last step of all: it puts a mirror, high gloss finish on kitchen knives, hunting knives and straight razors once the coarser grades have done the cutting. In the Bacher scale of 2000, 5000, 8000 and 12000 it is the finest, so reach for it after 8000 when you want a polished edge that glides. It brings the same finish to wood chisels and plane irons. At 0.4 to 0.6 microns the particle is small enough that the surface reads as a mirror and not as a flat satin, which is what a shaving edge needs. - NOT JUST FOR LEATHER - Load it onto felt, wool, sisal, canvas, linen or cotton just as easily, including buffing wheels and polishing discs. Beyond stainless blades it brings a high gloss to high carbon steel, aluminum, copper, bronze, brass, gold and silver, so it doubles as a hand polish for jewelry with a soft cloth or with the leather disc supplied. Apply it sparingly, because 1 to 2 g per 100 cm2 (about 15 sq in) is plenty, then work the blade until the film is thin and even. Buying your first tin: take 5000 or 8000 for kitchen and pocket knives, 2000 if the edge is still rough, 12000 for a shaving finish. - WHAT IS IN THE TIN - 3.53 oz (100 g) of soft compound in a resealable aluminum screw top tin, plus a round leather applicator disc with the Bacher logo, so you can load a strop straight away. The beeswax binder and the screw top are what keep the paste soft between sharpenings, so it does not set hard in the tin between uses. Made in Poland, EU. The other three grades are listed separately if you want the full progression. One honest note: this product finishes an edge that is already sharp, so it will not repair chips or revive a truly blunt blade, and it does not replace a sharpening stone. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B085F2HSD6 | | Best Sellers Rank | #282,580 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #524 in Sharpening Stones | | Brand Name | Bacher | | Compatible Material | Alloy Steel, Aluminum, Leather, Stainless Steel | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (263) | | Grit Material Type | Wax | | Grit Number | 5000 | | Grit Type | Ultra Fine (0.4-0.6 micron) | | Included Components | leather applicator | | Item Dimensions | 3.1 x 3.1 x 0.9 inches | | Item Weight | 100 g | | Manufacturer | Bacher | | Material Type | Paste with beeswax and lanolin | | Model | 5907713351175 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Packs | 1 | | Part Number | 5907713351182 | | Unit Count | 3.53 Ounce | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Bacher - **Grit Material:** Wax - **Grit Type:** Ultra Fine (0.4-0.6 micron) - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 3.1 x 3.1 x 0.9 inches - **Material:** Paste with beeswax and lanolin ## Images ![Stropping Compound - 3.53 oz - Black Ultra Fine 12000 Honing Paste - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61MJcyu3X4L.jpg) ![Stropping Compound - 3.53 oz - Black Ultra Fine 12000 Honing Paste - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71sf25CazZL.jpg) ![Stropping Compound - 3.53 oz - Black Ultra Fine 12000 Honing Paste - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51ystX955dL.jpg) ![Stropping Compound - 3.53 oz - Black Ultra Fine 12000 Honing Paste - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/31faPR29ZDL.jpg) ![Stropping Compound - 3.53 oz - Black Ultra Fine 12000 Honing Paste - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/611o2LHJXrL.jpg) ## Frequently Bought Together - BACHER Honing Compound 100g - Ultra Fine - for Polishing and Stropping Knife - Leather Strop Sharpening Compounds - Set with applicator - BACHER Stropping Compound 100g - Very Fine - for Knife Sharpening and Polishing - Leather Strop Compound - Set Honing Paste with applicator - BACHER Honing Compound 100g - Medium - for Polishing and Stropping Knife - Leather Strop Sharpening Compounds - Set with applicator --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/530780304-stropping-compound-3-53-oz-black-ultra-fine-12000-honing](https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/530780304-stropping-compound-3-53-oz-black-ultra-fine-12000-honing) --- *Product available on Desertcart Argentina* *Store origin: AR* *Last updated: 2026-08-13*
