    There are shavers who strop their cartridges on denim and claim that it helps considerably.

    Back in the day I would strop my cartridges on denim purely out of economics and the outrageous price of cartridges (boy the number of straights I could have bought if I saved all that money wasted on cartridges). It really would work and where most change the cartridge monthly, I would make them last 6-8 months.
