    There are several excellent videos on the site about stropping. Also look up the thread called "stroptober" tons of videos and good information.

    You can kill the edge of a good razor stropping badly, so watch carefully and pay close attention to technique. Maybe practice with a butter knife until you feel natural at it. That way you won't harm your razor or your strop.

    Just as long as the leather isn't rough or cracked you should be fine.

    There are places you can order a fairly cheap starter strop if you're worried about that one.

    If you haven't already, read the wiki of this site. There is just tons of great information there.
