I've read in a few places that the razor edge re-aligns itself (grows) after a certain amount of time after use. Some suggest 48 hours etc.

If this is true and if, as many people do, we have a few razors in our rotation, is there a need to strop?

I know the answer to this question depends on the purpose of stropping. And, I enjoy the process of stropping so I'll never not strop. I guess I was just wondering what people thought (and I'm a bit bored this morning and thought I'd drop a (slightly?) controversial question on the list )
