When you say you are shaving with a Feather are you referring to a Feather in a DE or a straight with a replaceable blade ? If it is the latter then I would say shaving technique isn't the issue. I've never shaved with a Feather straight but I hear they are unforgiving of lapses in technique.

I would suggest sending your razors out to Lynn or gssixgun for honing and in the meantime practice stropping with a butter knife or your Feather.
