Thread: Time for a new strop?

I've had my strop for about 6 months now, but given I'm still pretty new to SR, I've had my fair share of screw ups. I've attached some pictures and would appreciate your thoughts around if I need to get a new strop or if these kind of nicks are fairly standard. Also, does anyone have any idea what the green side is for? Tried using it once which is why there's a bit of green on the leather side but never again as did not want to mess up both my leather side and razor.
