I get the boogers too, but I count it as just being a new strop. I always use the hand rub first to oil and warm the strop.

[QUOTE=pwc123;1417198]Nice! When I'm stropping I'm somehow scraping some leather off with the part of the razor where the arrow is pointing. I guess I'm not applying even/balanced pressure across the entire blade. It's nothing drastic but I have a leather "booger"
You are not 'scraping' leather off the strop... It is just die residue... Give your strop a good hand rub before you strop, and clean the blade afterward with a tissue. (CAREFULLY). First time I cleaned the strop 'bugger' off my blade, I laid open my finger. lol I didn't know there was a 'Cut of the Day' thread or I would have posted a photo of the blood letting...Last edited by ChopperDave; 11-14-2014 at 08:38 AM.
