Description

A Kriss Kross rotary strop manufactured by Rhodes Mfg. Co. To use, a blade is inserted into the holder. When the handle on top is spun, the strop moves along with it while the blade is stationary. A mechanism in the gear housing periodically flips the blade in order to strop both sides. This strop also comes with its original box, a tag warning against improper use, a strip of card paper citing where to buy Kriss Kross brand blades, and instruction pamphlet. Found in the box unrelated are wrappers for GEM singledge blades, and a GEM doubledge blade.
