Hi guys,

i'm just about brand new to the straight razor shave, maybe done it 3 times. I'm excited to learn alot of stuff from you guys.

I have a newbie question, my girlfriend got me a strop from art of shave, and i have searched but don't have a clear understanding. When stropping my razor, do i put anything on the strop, like strop paste, or leave it how it came (dry)? i'm sure you guys have answered, but i don't have a good understanding of the terminology.
Thanks Guys
