Ha! Now that's a nice feeling. You must be excited! I'm pleased for you.

Lynn actually said it best, they are blemishes. I ran my Boker 7/8 Celebrated on my Kanayama 10k and it looks like scratches but it is in fact just a blemish. When I ran my Dovo Micarta on it, there was a nice zebra look to it for a couple of days until I stropped a few more razors on it.

I've scuffed my strop and doing the palm of the hand thing also helps over time to take the scuffs out or at least blend them so they are not noticeable.

Hi Rich,
I am sure that you will have nothing but a love affair with your 90K...Nice strop...

I ordered the 80K model from Jim this past Sunday during the sale...I am awaiting its arrival (in transit now)...I cannot wait. I heard so many good things about this strop, I feel like I should frame it rather than use it

.

But reading about people who have theirs and how happy they are, I am sure I will like mine.

I am sure it will serve you well for years to come. Use it and enjoy it.

You should save your money and not buy the infant and baby sized models. You should go for the model 1,000,000. It's so thick they had to glue hides together to make the strop. It's so special you have to complete an application and undergo a background check and physical exam.

I'm on the waiting list....
