Herold has been manufacturing razor strops since 1919, in the world’s cutlery capital Solingen, Germany. Herold provides a wide range of strops and lubricants with an aim to always ensure the smoothest performance of blades and other accessories. Herold strops are ideal to keep your blades sharp and active and ensure longer service life of the blade. For best results, these strops are meant to be used with products like Herold Tubenpaste, which ensure the strops remain sharp and well groomed. Everyday stropping pastes are high-quality strop conditioners, non-abrasives designed for the leather side of your strop. The pastes are essential for maintaining your strop, preventing cracks and ensuring that the leather stays supple and smooth. Abrasive pastes provide a finer sharpening effect to your straight razor.

Herold Solingen manufactures Tubenpaste–paste for razor stops that help in keeping it in perfect condition, for a longer time. Herold Solingen Razor Pastes are best for strop leather care. These pastes ensure that the strop always remains flexible and smooth. Herold Tubenpaste comes in both solid and paste variety. Herold Solingen Tubenpaste products are meant both for medium grinding and low grounding effect. It is best to use Yellow Paste or White Paste for everyday stropping. More abrasive stropping pastes like Green, Red or Black are used to bring edges back to a great state of sharpness when they dull. The red paste is ideal for coarser grind, while the black paste is useful for polishing the edge of your blade. Simply apply the paste to your strop with a cotton cloth and let it do its job.
