Recently I had a shave. My razor was sharp and contributed to a good result. In other words, my face felt smooth. A short time after however I noticed the awkward feeling of some razor burn. Most likely due to my technique.

In many threads I have read about the importance of an edge being not only sharp but also smooth. I think I know how to keep my Lynn honed razor sharp with stropping and touch-ups. Using a DOVO leather/canvas strop and the DOVO red paste.

But how do I make the edge smooth? Do you guys have tips for me?
