Thanked: 7If You're Stupid and You Know It...
....I was in such a hurry to shave tonight I hung up the strop AND FORGOT TO STROP THE RAZOR.
I thought she was getting a bit "draggy!" Oh my gosh, I'm such an idiot!
Still, razor did what I wanted it to and although I need to make a second pass tomorrow and knock out the newly-forming mustache, it doesn't look too bad.
Anyone else forget to strop?

I have forgotten to strop before but I strop before and after so it was still just fine. I can't say I noticed any difference. Guess I just had too many things on my mind at the time.
It's just Sharpening, right?

Can't say I have forgot...I have been unable to remember so I have probably RE-stropped a couple of razors.
JerKeep it safe and Cheers,

Thanked: 315I have to get all my shaving stuff from the bedroom so it is difficult to overlook stropping.
Better one you forgot to strop than forgot to hone.- Joshua

Thanked: 23At least you recognized what it was and hung it up...Two out of three isn't passing, but not terrible. I suggest deep, cleansing breaths...

Thanked: 7OMGosh! How did you hurt your finger so badly?
*Once I turned a big toenail inside out. That was very painful and required an ER visit. I never wore flip flops again after that.
I do find humor takes the edge off so when I was being signed in I told the two secretaries "I didn't know where to go, here or the nail salon." That earned a few laughs.

I have never forgotten to stop but this thread title was made for me.
I have sneezed while trying to shave,
Rushed trying to finish quickly,
daydreamed while shaving,
Thought I was much better at shaving that I actually am (kinda goes with the daydreaming)
etc. etc...

I have not yet forgotten to strop, but I am left wondering what it says about me that the first thread I'd open while visiting the forum is called "If You're Stupid and You Know It..."
