So after my first sucessful stropping a few days ago, i had to strop again today.
Man.. i went and F'd up my razor perty good.
Shaved my arm well enough, but ended up nicking the daylights outa my face.
SO, i will be sending it off to get re honed on a barbers stone, and stropped.
My camel razor as well so i have something to learn stropping on, that i dont care to much about.
Sorry to hear that,
use a butter knife to practice stropping, it will help.
But on the bright side you will have a freshly honed blade again :D
If you are using a hanging strop.... Try lying it down on a flat surface and using it that way. Takes one of the variables out of the equation at least.
ps... We all have done this, don't think your the only one. :)
Better to do 200 light laps than wait for your razor to get back from touch ups.
