I recommend the OP to dive into the stacks of the forum because the number of variables are formidable. Good Luck!

Thanked: 1195Could be stropping or shaving technique, or possibly both.
Stropping has been covered fairly well in this thread, so on to shaving technique. Two of the biggest blade killers are high angle and straight cuts. Make sure you're using a shallow angle. And try an angled heel or toe leading (aka guillotine) stroke or scything stroke. Both are far easier on the edge and much more efficient at cutting whiskers.
