Thread: Question about post-shave stropping

I was discussing the subject of straight razors with an authorized Dovo US distributor a while back, and she told me that once, when she had met with the Dovo representative from Solingen regarding products, he had told her that it was a common contemporary misconception that straight razors should be stropped both before and after shaving. She said he stated that it was actually bad for (excessively hard on) the blade to strop the edge immediately after shaving with it, and that the blade should be left to "rest" for a day or two before stropping it again, prior to shaving. She also told me that this was why, historically, most men owned at least two straight razors at any one time, so that they could let one rest for a day or two before stropping and using it again. She also stated that wealthy men, who could afford it, owned the once-popular seven-day set of straight razors for the same reason. Has anyone ever heard that? What are people's opinions about post-shave stropping?
