just got a new Dovo strop today ,,
do ineed to do anything to it ,, or just use it as it is .
thought maybe some handcream in it to soften it up ,, but not sure .
what is in those conditioners that they use ,, and do i need to bother ?
thanks for your help chaps
Use it as it is.
Never used the Dovo strops. If they are anything like the excellent Illinois Razor Strop Co strops, it may need some breaking-in to get it up to speed.

Nope, DOVO strops do not need breaking in, just use it. At most, rub your hand over the leather a few times a day, if you like, otherwise, do nothing. I'm sure you noticed how soft and pliable the leather was, that's how it should be. When the leather becomes a little stiff feeling, then apply a strop dressing as shown in Lynn's DVD
Good Luck
