Stropping a "Shave Ready" straight razor
I recently purchased a Dovo straight razor and had it honed by Dovo before I received it. I new from reading this message board to strop it before use (I strop it after every shave). I think I was stropping it wrong on my return trip and I noticed that it didn't shave as nice. I have since corrected my mistake and want to know if I continue to strop it correctly will the edge get better an improve my shave or should I just send it back fro re-honing. I tried the hair-check after stropping (40 white side & 80 leather side) and the hair didn't “pop” or “plink” like I've seen in the video's.
Sorry for the long winded explenation.
Thanks
