+1 to JeffR's suggestion that more stropping may be needed. I went through a spell where I was getting edges to be sharp enough, but uncomfortable to shave with, and (sometimes) stropping was the issue. I now do 100+ on linen or webbing and 100+ on leather after honing. It doesn't always work, sometimes I think I just didn't get the bevel right or spend enough time on sharpening, but sometimes it will just take the harshness out of the edge.
