    Good advice. as for your chin, try breaking it down visually into small flat planes and adjust your strokes accordingly.

    Once again thanks for all the tips. I think my stropping has improved. I found that I was pulling the strop too tight therefore the blade was not flat throughout the stropping process.
    As for the problem shaving my chin, I think I have a ways to go. I think my technique is getting better, but I know it takes time to perfect the technique.
