What is good strop belt?
#13
Grepper,
Are the belts you recommended Micro-Mesh? The grade numbers line up; I'm curious if the supplier has a source for bulk rolls and is making off-brand belts.

Worksharp includes the MicroMesh 12000 for a finishing belt with the 1x18 "blade grinder," I don't have extensive experience with it but I'm happy with it for knife sharpening. (Previous belt setup was a 2x72 with 3M belts.) 
Worksharp has stopped selling leather, started selling a set of plain 3M belts with CrO2 and FeO2 compound sticks. 

I have hanging razor strops with CrO2 and .25um diamond so I'm not looking for compound belts, but I'm curious about the characteristics you all like in a final belt. Is the flesh-side leather belt acting like a muslin buff, soft and non-abrasive but with a lot of grab?
