The one area I found the palm stropping to make a real difference was with my Mongoose SE. I'd take a brand new Feather Pro blade, and strop it on the heel of my palm and I noticed it markedly reduced the harshness of the new blade.

Something to try again, and pay more attention...always interesting stuff to learn and experiment with.
Actually, I do enjoy stropping immensely. It relaxes me. That's why I run up high numbers on strokes. Also, as I noted earlier, I use a short stropping space, thus the reason for the higher number of strokes.

By the way, I have never tried stropping the Feather Pro on my palm. I will try it the next time I shave with my ATT SE2.
