A few days ago for no particular reason I stropped my newly-honed SR very slowly and softly. I'm thrilled to say it yielded one of my best shaves to date. I've been stropping too hard all this time. I think I was also stropping too fast. I've watched countless videos on You Tube and at a couple of SR vendors that are members here. They go so fast it's a wonder that smoke isn't rising off that blade.
My mentor told me to keep learning. This one I picked up by accident, but my days of stropping like I'm making a video are over. It will be gentle and slow from here on out. Live and learn. I am so grateful for picking up this seemingly insignificant procedure. It's huge, and will help me moving forward.
