This was probably asked before but I can't seem to find an answer.

I feel that I need an edge refresh every 5 or 6 shaves. I have 2 razors I use and I need to refresh them every couple of weeks on .5 pasted strop. It does't really pull (or at least I don't feel it) after 5 or 6 shaves but I just don't get as close of a shave at that point.

I've tried .25 but it doesn't seem to do it for me so I have to do 10 laps on .5 and then 10 laps on .25. Does that sound reasonable. I just want to make sure I'm not doing it too often thus ruining the edge or something like that.
