So far I have a 3" Dovo strop and some Tuf-Glide for rust prevention, then I have a jar of alcohol to dip the razor in the sterilize and displace any water.

I'd like to eventually learn to sharpen a razor but I've got a long way to go I tried on a Dovo Pearlex SS and couldn't do it, so I sent it to Lynn to make sure it gets done right.
