I'm sure glad to hear this I always do my mustache last, and find my razor wanting right in the corner of my mouth ...but the rest of the shave is great... I know I need to strop better. But hey I'm getting there

No, but I strop both before and after the shave to make totally sure the blade is dry and there is no soap residue. 30 laps on the linen, 50-60 laps on the leather each time.
