Thread: white gunk on razor?

To dry my blade after shaving, I wipe it off, strop it about 10 licks and finally a drop of blade oil on each side.

Thanks a lot for all the advice. Really helped out a beginner to straight razor shaving.

I had the same problem Joe and i found it was linked to hard water *Live in the sticks so I use well water* What i found worked was a little bottled water on a cloth, then dry with paper towl, let sit for 5 mins or so then add oil. Im a newbie too so not sure if thats actuaally the problem
