Thread: timing of my stropping routine

I strop the night before also and have noticed no appreciable difference to doing it right before the shave.

Same here as far as the edge goes. I have noticed, though, that I strop better at night when all those muscles are good and warmed up. I've had some close calls when stropping in the morning, so tend to avoid it.

Except of course when there is a full moon and the gravitational effects from the moon cause subtle changes in the plasticity of the iron atoms in the razor. Oh yes this is a fact just like it also pulls the blood closer to the surface and you always get a closer shave during a full moon.

Excuse me I need to go take my razor out of the pyramid before high tide comes or you know what happens.
