    I've always found that the amount of pressure on the strop was a function of the strop and the razor in question. Sometimes I use a lot of pressure, sometimes a light touch - it all depends on what you feel through the razor and where the edge is at. I think if you try to concentrate on listening to what the edge is telling you, the appropriate amount of pressure (and laps) will just follow naturally.

    James.
