The troubles were:
The egde was very harsh- confirmed by honemeister.
Not cutting arm hair and hit and miss with HHT - which honemeiester passed just by stropping.
My shave technique with DX I would say gives me 80%BBS across the face consistantly with mostly no nicks or weepers with a professional blade, I am more than happy with my shaves. I have been lathering for DE shaving before using the DX and recently pushed a palmolive stick iinto my cella which IMO produces a ridiculously thick and slick lather.
At this point, I'm thinking my stropping method might not be up to it, though it's not damaging the blade or rolling the edge (again confirmed by honemeister)
I'm thinking maybe 20 laps on the scrub leather and 50 on the premium might not be enough?????
Maybe the carbonsong steel requires more?? I might try 30/80 or something.
End of the week (hopefully) I'll have 9 freshly honed razors in my posession including the TI
