Thanked: 27When the edge rolls during a shave, is it better to strop it or get a backup razor?
Sometimes halfway during a shave, I notice that the razor starts performing much better on one side than the other, and I know this is because the edge rolls. I can take turns shaving with my right hand and then the left, or curiously enough, if I wait a few hours the edge "resets" itself and the razor performs excellent on both sides again. This is a very strange phenomenon I've noticed. Anyone else ever notice this?
Since I really dislike taking turns using one side of the blade and then the next (I like to shave with only my right hand), and waiting 8 hours to finish the other side of my face is not practical, I was wondering if it would be better to re-strop the razor, or get some backup blades. Any opinions?
