There are no bad questions everyone has to learn.

after about a week to a month, depending on how rough your beard is, your razor will start tugging even if you strop it. At this point it is advisable to use either a very fine grit hone (swaty, keen kutter, 12k, coticule), you may have seen them mentioned around here, or to use pasted strops (paddle or hanging) to touch up your razor.

You use the pasted strop same as a normal one then linen then leather. It is essentially very very light honing and only needs to be done as stated above weekly to monthly YMMV.
