Ok, I want to know how many shaves people are getting out of the various SE blades with hand-stropping
Gem / Pella PTFE?
Pal Carbon Steel?
Treet Carbon Steel?
Gem Blue Star?
Mr Hand Strop expert. I have been doing this for a very long time. Blade does not have to be dry, and it does not have to be done before you shave.
Try hand stropping a wet blade just after you shave with it. That works too! And I know that is how Dave does it.

You called me the Hand Strop Expert, I didn't.
You will find that hand stropping a wet blade after use will work just as well as the way you do it.
