caring for my 4-year-old SRD strop
Hi everyone,
I have a paddle strop I purchased from SRD four years back, the one where the leather is a magnet and you can interchange it. I've been using it quite frequently, and started noticing that it is starting to look very dry, when I bend it in the light I can see its not smooth but crackling at places.
I do have some neatsfoot oil that I rub into it, maybe I don't do it often enough. I also have a replaceable identical leather piece that I got at the same time and I never used. I can definitely notice that the replaceable one is lighter in color and is much smoother when u bend it with your thumb.
I should be able to use the leather piece for a bit more? Any other suggestions besides rubbing it with neatsfoot?
