    Default strop treatment

    I know this must sound stupid but, what should I use on my strop to condition it? Would olive oil work or should I use something like Obenaufs Leather Treatment, works great on my boots and gloves haha. Or can it be something as simple as neatsfoot oil. Thanks for your help.

    Rex,
    I have heard of others using olive oil and many leather conditioners work well too like Lexoil.
    Dovo and Fromm make dressings for strops. I sell the Fromm via eBay.

    Neatsfoot oil works well but use it sparingly, 2-3 drops.

    The best is actual strop dressing.
