Regarding the humidity. I've been thinking about this. It was ok in Broome, (sub tropical soup-air) but I did get razor rust which I've combated this time, keeping the blade oiled.
I haven't wrapped my strops in a plastic bag, as I don't think sweat will get into my backpack as it's got a layer of rigid stuff between my back and the pack, and the sweat will have to get through that and some layers of clothes but I will monitor this closely. Thanks for that suggestion.
I've been rubbing strop conditioner through my strop for the last few weeks and I've taken a small tube of conditioner with me so hopefully that rot should keep at bay.
Re: the barbers there. I will keep my eye out for them there. It'll be cool.
Thanks again for all the replies! Muchly appreciated.
