Hi.
I recently got a new Dovo Special and a new strop. Within a couple of days the strop was turning a little gray in places. Could this be steel coming off the blade? If so, should I occasionally clean the strop? and with what?

In some ways it has been useful because it shows me that I'm applying a little more pressure on the right side of the strop where I'm holding the blade. However, I do try to follow the advice and strop LIGHTLY.

Thanks,
Tom
