    It is possible to strop your razor on a newspaper. I've done so while travelling. My proper strop was in one city and my razor and I were in another It is also very easy to ruin a good edge if you are not sure what you are doing while you are trying to strop.

    If I were you I would have tried to be patient. I would have ordered a strop from one of the reputable firms on this site. And read about stropping in the Wiki while I was waiting…

    Good luck.
