So, have you looked at the edge with magnification?

Chances are either the bevel was not completely set or you used too much pressure when stropping and rolled the edge.

Both are common novice issues. Looking straight down on the edge will tell you. And as you found… hair test are unreliable.
As said, eliminate the razor as an issue, have it honed and learn to shave.

Or get some magnification and start over honing and use lite pressure when stropping.

A hands on mentor will cut your learning curve… dramatically.
