I just received my first straight razor set (Dovo special and 3" Red Latigo Strop) and I had a quick question before I use it (unfortunately tomorrow, I already shaved today). It was professionally honed from SRD, so do I strop before my first shave or do I use it like that (so I make sure to experience a professionally honed razor and I don't mess it up)?

Also, is it okay to use that same razor (my only one) daily? I believe so, but I have seen debates here (and elsewhere) about resting the razor and rotating?

I tried to check with the forums, but I wasn't sure of the overall opinion for each.

Thanks for your time, effort, and insight.
