    Default New Stropping Revalation

    I realized today, that if I put the weight of the razor on the edge of the spine while stropping on my 3" Tony Miller Red Latigo, contact with the edge is enhanced and my 8/8 Friodur actually "sings" while I strop. I have not run into this before. The resulting shave was one of the best I have ever had. Nearly BBS in two passes.

    I am thinking of adopting this practice all the time, but want to make sure that this is not a bad idea for any reason. This seems to provide even contact without putting too much pressure on the edge.

    Can anyone else give me feedback good or bad on this before it becomes a habit?
