Is it tugging / pulling everywhere, or just the chin and neck? Did it just start or has it been tugging / pulling since you got it back from the hone meister? How's you blade angle, less than 30 degrees? When you strop, do you roll the blade on its spine? Is your lather drying out on your face? (This was a problem for me when I first started with a str8, even though I'd been shaving with a badger brush and shave soap for over 30 yrs.)

It might be technique or it might be a dulled blade.
