    The crease makes it look like it was folded in half. Could be a bump in the road for the razor.

    I had a similar problem with my first strop. Totally fubarred my situation... Crease no good. Maybe... just maybe it can be rubbed out. No pun intended.

    yea, that crease (if thats what it is) can spell real trouble ahead. You need to get it out of there.

    Your new strop looks good. Creases are not a problem, and will not damage your razor. Smoother is better, of course so if the creases don't smooth out by simply hanging the strop and using it, a little rubbing with a glass bottle while it's laying on a table top should smoothe it right out.
