    Normal. Just a well oiled strop.

    People who lather their strops for additional draw run into this. The residue is easy to remove and doesn't cause a problem.

    Thank you for the responses. I'm glad this wasn't the first steps to a ruined strop.

    My latigo still does this after over a month of daily use
    I dream of a world where a chicken can cross a road without having it's motives questioned.

    I'm going on 6 months and it still does it, but slightly less. I now have an up/down streak on the strop, but it doesn't effect the shave quality at all.
