Should I clean used strop?
I picked up this Illinois razor strop #9266 today for $15 at an antique store. it is my first strop so I didn't want to pay a lot. Strop seems to be in good shape no cuts or nicks. The canvas(?) side seems dirty and has fold marks in it. Should I clean the strop? I read not to from some people. What should I do with the fabric side?
Also is this a decent strop? Seems nice. It's horse hide. Attachment 166611

Strop cleaned up rather nicely. I soaked it in some woolite a few times then in plain water. Leather I just wiped with a damp cloth
