Olaf, linseed oil is not to be used on strops. For that purpose DOVO, TI and The Well Shaved Gentleman sell special product for maintaining the strop surface. One of the recommended replacements is Mink oil...

You are right. I was unclear in my post. I guess my writing skills needs honing like my razor.
Linseed on leather is not good unless one wants a cracked surface that looks like the item has been around for hundreds of years. At least that is how I understood it.
On wood it is wonderful like so many have said in this thread.
