If the edges are very sharp and highly polished, and you have stropped them sufficiently, and probably used something like chromium oxide or diamond before the leather stropping, then you have to consider the possibility that the harshness is not due to burrs or wire edges or overhoning. Even though I am afraid this will kick off another round of gnashing of teeth by some here, you might just have a very sharp edge. And, if you strop a few times, and the shaves become comfortable, it might be because the edge has lost just a little of the V shaped sharpness and is now more of a very, very sharp U shape. Still very sharp, but, due to the slight rounding of the bevel immediately before the cutting edge, gentler on my skin.
