I’ve only recently begun collecting knives and learning how to care for them…
I’m not sure what color buffing compound leather strops are commonly used..
I have no experience with this, but as I’m sitting at home hand sanding..
..and trying to put a great glossy layer of poly on some Birdseye…
…he took a bare wood knife handle, threw it on the buffer for 5 seconds…
..and it looks beautiful!

Applying Compound Small and Often
How know your buffer or polishing wheel the amount of compound?
There is no set amount of stone, but the secret is…
…that small amounts of compounds are often used.
Put your compound on your wheel for about a second…
…or two and then polish it again.
The best way to use the buffing compound leather strop is…
…to add t to the wheel before you try to polish anything.
The part you need to polish helps you to work the compound..
…deeper in your wheel while polishing, so that you get much better…
….faster results while maintaining the compound.
Your Wheel to Clean Up
The best way to clean your Buffer wheel is by a wheel rake with its jagged blade…
Get your blade running, then get the blade side of your rake to the buffer….
Cut the rake softly back and forth on the side…
…of the buffer wheel until it looks fluffy again.
When frequently done, the metal part, which is trapped in the wheel…
…is deleted to prevent further fragile elements from scraping…
…the next time you begin to polish.
The residue can be cut and cleaned with a hot water solution…
…with a number of drops of ammonia in order…
…to make the cleaning more comprehensive.
This process can be done quicker and ultrasonic waves…
…can shake out the loosening grain and waste from the buffer wheel…
…when it is placed in an ultrasonic cleaner.
However, you must allow the wheel to dry completely…
…before using it again to prevent it from being used for a long time.

No need to lay or mix different compounds as much as possible…
…since an unusual abrasive surface mix can be achieved…
…that can harm any advantage you hope to obtain…
…by mixing a thinner or more gross compound.
The deposits of metal left by the preceding polishing wheel…
…also vary according to the coarseness of the compound…
…and can damage components requiring a finer polishing agent.
If you must apply an ingredient to the old wheel, you can do several things…
..first, clean the wheel as described earlier or wear several ingredients wisely…
..if you are not free to completely clean the wheel.
Use a compound that is less complicated than the latter used on the wheel…
…only if compounds are doubled on the used wheel.
Do not use the final polishing or coloring on a rough cutting or buffer…
…but it can damage the part you want to finish with rough…
…remaining particles in the fibre.
Another good alternative to avoid this whole problem is…
…to start with the application of a one-step polishing material like…
…Fabulustre that allows you to polish and buff a variety of metals…
…using only one compound. All possible hazards from changing grains…
…and monitoring, which wheel is used for every compound, are eliminated.

All of these procedures help you achieve the smoothest and brightest results.
Polishing is the process of smoothing a surface with a coarse abrasive…
…similar to sanding a piece of wood with fine and finer sandpapers.
After polishing, buffing is a less harsh stage in which looser…
…and finer abrasives are used to further smooth a surface…
…in order to get a brighter sheen or a mirror finish.
Cut buffing and color buffing are normally accomplished in 1-3 steps…
The first stage in buffing a surface is cut buffing….
To remove any scratches, buff with a coarser buffing compound leather strop…
such as black emery or brown Tripoli.
Some surfaces may appear to be sufficiently buffed…
..at this point and require no more color buffing.
The final step in achieving optimum shine on a surface is color buffing….
The “jeweler’s rouge” color compounds (green and blue)…
..have the finest abrasive materials and can offer the ultimate shine..
..and mirror finish on most metals, woods, stones, and plastics.
Let’s move on…

- Grinding – the first step in shaping the metal edge, which can be done with a standard grinding wheel, a diamond whetstone, a manmade or natural stone such an India (manmade), a water stone (manmade), or an Arkansas (natural), or sheets of 280-320-400 grit wet/dry carbide paper on a sheet of glass. Any of these ways will quickly lower the edge, cutting and eliminating any extraneous metal. Other grinding methods include belt sanders, depending on the instruments available and the time allotted by the owner. Honing with a finer grit is the next phase.
- Honing – removing metal faster than buffing with a motorized wheel, usually a hard surface with a coarser* abrasive. This leaves a sharp edge that needs to be stroped or buffed. The term “courser” is misleading because the honing surface still has a very fine grain, and the goal is to smooth the edge rather than remove a lot of metal. On glass, a finer stone, diamond stone, or finer grit carbide paper can also be used.
- Buffing – done with a motorized wheel, using anything from a soft cloth to a hard felt or leather wheel, usually with some kind of magical stuff on it that is nothing more than a very fine metal cutting agent and a fancy colored binder that is usually wax or a similar base to hold the cutting agent on the wheel.
- Stropping – Similar to buffing, but done by hand, dragging a sharp edge along a surface, such as leather, and utilizing the above-mentioned magical substance. The edge is pulled with the sharp edge trailing, removing very small amounts of metal and lowering the edge from a very fine but unpolished edge to a polished and shining edge.
