Thanked: 2A true noobie strop question
I just purchased my first straight razor and strop. I have read almost every thread on strops and I understand the use and proper way to strop, but I am confused on my choice. This is the strop I purchased "Vintage Blades Black Latigo 3" Hanging Razor Strop with Handles" from vintage blades llc. Once I receive this strop and the straight blade I purchased, do I need to do anything to prep the strop such as oil it or use paste, or do I just hang it and go to work with it? Did I make a good choice of strop? The straight razor I purchased from the same place is the Dovo 5/8 full hollow Best Quality which will be shave ready by Lynn. I am hoping that I made a good choice in strop. Any advice or help is appreciated.
