Thread: How to prepare a strop for first use?

Hi,

I just purchased my first strop off Amazon. Amazon.com: Fromm Razor Strop 2 1/2" X 23" W/HDL Russia: Health & Personal Care

Fromm Razor Strop 2 1/2" X 23" W/HDL Russia

It seems a little rough on the leather side. Can I use this strop out of the box without treating it in some way?

thanks,
Rob
