You mean a strop - sole leather impregnated with jeweller's rouge. Used by barbers for straght-edge razors to keep the edges keen between shaves.
These people just used regular leather. No rouge either, still worked. I guess its not as precise as a razor blade.
Im not planning on doing any actual boning, I like to leave nearly everything on the bone. Just seems like a decent sized knife to compliment the chinese clever (very good) that I use for everything else.
