    Seth, did he say anything about how he recomends caring for the strops? Oil? Lather? Hand rubbing?
    I'd be interested in what he says about it.

    The instructions that are included on the 30000 strop that I have in stock (only 4 left in stock at the moment, mind you) have the following to say;

    Before stropping the razor rub the palm of the hand over the surface of the strop vigorously several times. This cleans the strop. Warms it up, causing better friction, keeps it smooth and soft and helps to "break in" a new strops.
