Gettin sticky on ze blade
I have this DOVO Straight Razor with Reddish Brown Pakkawood Handles 5/8 inch - Knifecenter.com blade and i use this strop with it Jemico DOVO German Razor Strop 23" Long Red Russian Leather with Handle - Knifecenter.com and i treated it with the yellow conditioner Jemico DOVO German Razor Strop Leather Conditioner In Small Tube - Knifecenter.com from what i know i diden't use that much at all and i rubbed it into the strop well covering the edged and middle uniformally. When i run the blade over it im keeping it taught and dragging the blade at a 30 degree angle but i seem to be picking up this stuff from the strop and onto my razor. It is very sticky but does come off with one to two pulls from a cotton cloth from the back of the blade to the front.
This is the first time i have ever used a strop and straight razor do you guys have any idea on what it could be:thinking:
