Hart razor and First BBS shave!

[loueedacat]

I would definitely leave your strop as it is but do 30 linen strokes and at least 60 leather before each shave.

And either do what JimmyHad says, or just get a finishing stone (coticule, Spyderco UF, thuringen, swaty, escher, or chinese 12k) and use that to touch your blades up fairly regularly. That way you won't do the pasted strop rounding thing, and you'll be building up your honing skill.

Great to hear you made your break through with a Hart razor!
