    new to this, very new, under two months.

    I was using leather only for a while, then I tried leather/linen, wrong order, I think.
    Just switched it around, linen then leather and am getting MUCH smoother shaves, I think.
    Do about 50 laps on each and will play with the numbers/ratios over time.

    My normal routine is 40 linen/60 leather. Off the hones I'll increase my leather laps to the 80-100 region. If it's a heavy wedge I'll increase the ratio to perhaps 50 linen/100 leather.
