    Hi from Ontario, pleased to meet you.

    Where are you from and what are you shaving with?
    We love pictures.

    Did you buy it as a NEW strop, or used? Did he say anything about the scratch in the listing or was the scratch visable in the listing? If it was listed as new then send it back. If used then see what deal you can make as being new to straight razors you dont need to learn to strop around a scratch.

    BTW, as far as does the scratch mater, my opinion is if you can feel it when stropping then it could be causing issue with your edge. JMO. Good luck and let us know how it goes.
