Hi and welcome back. You don't need to oil your str8 after every use. If you keep it in a dry place and have dried it well after use, i. e. with some toilettissue, then you won't have to worry about rust for a while. If you use it very unregularly, say every other month, then it couldn't hurt to give it a thin film of oil before putting it away.
When you want to use it again, rub the oil off again, i. e. with toilettissue before stropping.

That's what I do with mine and haven't seen a speck of rust yet.

Keep at it and have fun.
