In the last few weeks I have bought 2 brand new razors. A Thiers Izzard and a Revisor.

Both were supplied ready to shave, the way they shave I can believe it!

But- my question is, the paperwork that came with both said not to strop until it had been used for 'several' shaves. Why is that? I've always stropped after and before using a razor (OK, older vintage razors) However it has to be said that both razors have been used for about 3 shaves each and feel fine.

What should I do? Don't want to wreck them.
