I've been having a strange issue the last few days. My strop seems to be actively taking away my razors edge. I haven't had this problem before, and I don't think I've changed my technique at all.

I don't use any pastes, just a plain strop. It's got a few nicks in it, so it's not in tip top shape, but it's served well before. I just tried rubbing in some strop dressing and will try stropping tomorrow to see if that made a difference.

Does anyone have an idea of what might be going on?
