That's what I thought but I'm the newb here. My leather does have some scratches and scrapes from learning on it. Could that be the sound you're hearing ? I'll attach a pic of it. Could it be a defect in the razor no one has noticed till now. The razor I sent in to have honed was shaving better than this at its worst.

IDK, but I'm going crazy trying to figure this out. I do want to thank everyone for the help.
