I still suggest leaving a strop alone. Rub it gently with the hand at best. On a smooth surface strop dressing can have some benefit but on the finely napped surface it is likely to just lay the fibers down and create a glaze.
Less is more.

Just in case anybody is interested I posted a review on the horsehide in the strop review section.
