Thanked: 2209Before sending your razor out for honing you might try 30 laps on the linen side followed by 30-40 laps on the plain leather strop. Then test shave. Since your razor was shaving ok at first you might be able to restore the edge with just the linen and leather.
The other major variable is your shaving prep. Make sure those whiskers have been saturated with water and your lather is fresh.
