Shave 8:

I gave the Morley razor 30/70 again just to see if I had a bad day or it was really giving me some tug and pull. I had about a day and a half growth. On the first N-->S pass there was some tug and pull. On the second pass it was provided a smooth glide. Every once in a while I'd stop on both passes and check the lather built up on the razor. Every time, evenly throughout the blade, the lather was full of whiskers. So I turn to the pro's here. Should I give it 5 to 10 laps on the pasted ruprazor strop, send it to be honed, keep using it and don't let my beard grow more then a day? I just don't know if it's dulled a bit after 7 shaves or what the deal is. Couple that with me still learning to strop, and shave I could very well be the problem.

As far as the shave it went well. I missed a spot on my neck but things seem to be improving each time. And again no nicks, cuts, or burn so that's always a plus.
