    Default first strop recommendation?

    Hi guys - I'm new here, have my first razor on its way, and I'm wondering about strops. Would anyone have a recommendation for a good first strop?

    I actually have Kanoyama cordovan strop already, but is the length of a sharpening stone and is on a wooden block - meant for kitchen knives, which is why I have it. Not sure of the 'grit'. If I'm allowed to post links here, I could. (Sold by Japanese Natural Stones) ... Anyway, I'm not sure if this is what a razor stropper would want or not.

    (Name note: I see these are often called 'Kanayama' but believe actually that 'Kanoyama' is correct. An old thread here shows the maker's shop and that's the actual name on the door.)
