I recently purchased a straight and a premium II strop from SRD. I have been shaving and stropping for a little over a week and everything is going well. Still learning as I expected, but I need some advice. I have read about different ways to freshen up the razor when I will need to such as pastes, barber hones, etc. Eventually I will try to hone, but for the foreseeable future I will send back to SRD. What is a solution (I know there are many) to refreshing my blade and when I do take on honing have this solution fit right in? I don't like to buy anything with planned obsolescence. Thanks,
