Slower Stropping Stroke
Just Curious about this... In the Wiki about razor stropping it mentions that too slow of a stroke may cause problems (uneven pressure). Since I want to prefect the x-pattern, I have a 2.5 Inch strop, I want to go slow because I find that I sacrifice equal blade coverage if I go faster.
what are the disadvantages of using a stoke like this:
-Place razor at top of strop
-pause and think about the stroke
-accelerate
-decelerate
-pause briefly
-roll razor while repositioning
REPEAT
This one lap takes me about 3-4 seconds.... I find that if I concentrate hard enough The sound of each pass is about equal...
