Bob Kramer - Leather Stropping Block
Sharpen like a master
Only re-sharpen all KRAMER by ZWILLING knivesvwith appropriate professional tools to retain their sharpness, due to the high grade of hardness of the material. Regularly draw the blade across the KRAMER by ZWILLING leather stropping block to restore the knife's cutting ability. If your knife's sharpness noticeably diminishes, we would recommend sharpening the blade with a KRAMER by ZWILLING sharpening stone. These sharpening stones are perfectly designed for these ranges of knives, but are also ideal for professionally sharpening all other types of steel knives. The sharpening stones are available, as required, in various grain sizes – from #400 grit for major correction work or in the event of breaks in the blade, to #10,000 grit for an extremely sharp finish.
- Extremely low wear
- Ultra-fast grinding effect
- The sharpening stones can be used in a non-slip bamboo holder. The holder can be extended to work more cleanly directly over the sink.
The perfect art of knife-cutting
Bob Kramer has gathered a wealth of experiences throughout his varied life. When working in the most diverse kitchens, he learned not only how to use a wide variety of types of knives, but also the mysteries of knife-sharpening, before finally driving through the USA in a converted truck as a mobile knife-sharpener. The desire grew in him to produce his own high-performance knives that would be easy to sharpen and would retain their intact cutting edge even after heavy use. For over 20 years he has been passionately devoting himself to perfecting the art of blade-forging. This experience forms the basis for a collection of high-performance knives: KRAMER BY ZWILLING.

Bob Kramer has achieved cult status among chefs and knife aficionados and his knives are much sought-after works of art. The waiting list is long for his knives, even if a small knife can cost thousands of dollars. Bob Kramer forges only a handful of knives personally by hand every week in his factory in Olympia, Washington. Anyone who finally holds "their very own" Bob Kramer knife in their hand after waiting a year or so for it, will never want another knife. Bob Kramer has now incorporated his extensive knowledge and life-long experience into a cooperative partnership with ZWILLING. The joint goal: More people should be able to call a knife that meets Bob Kramer's exacting quality standards their own. The joint result: Euro Carbon, Euro Stainless and Euro Essential – knives made by master craftsmen in Seki / Japan.
