I have just bought an old razor made by joseph elliot. I would like to startshaving with it, the bladeis in good condition and has been honed. Iv bought a cheap leather strop and have stroped the blade. I have tried to shave with it and feel that the blade isnt sharp anought.

I am used to sharpaning knife's and would be happy if my knife was this sharp. I'v been watching clips on youtube about stroping and feel like I am doing it right.

Any tips would be brilliant
