You are correct, that is the less expensive strop. Still very good and does a good job but I found it a little small/short.
You can put a gentle coating of oil on the leather just by rubbing the palm of your hand on the leather.
You can fluff the leather back up again by rubbing a pumice stone over the surface gently.
Next time I'd recommend buying a strop from Hand American or Tony Miller. These two specialist American craftsmen specialise in strops. Their products represent better value and better quality than the DOVO products.
