The one question that I would have if I had to touch up on a pasted strop every shave would be the integrity of the steel in the blade etc.

I guess if it works for you then have at it...to each their own. But if I had to run one of my Custom blades over a pasted strop each shave then I would wonder what I paid so many of my hard earned dollars for

Granted, I have 20 some razors in my rotation, but it's been well over 3yrs since I've had to take one of them to a hone or paddle for a touchup. Even then it was only 10 laps on CroOx, otherwise it's just plain linen and leather before each shave
