Prior to the other day, I would strop about 20 passes on my cheap, leather strop, which seems to work and then get to work.
Following the shave, I'd dry off the razor and strop it about 10-20 passes on the denim strop, followed by another 20 -30 on the leather strop.
I read somewhere, that you should not strop the razor right after the shave? I'm really confused now.
Today shave, which was decent, I didn't strop following the shave. I did about 20 passes pre shave on a freshly honed razor with one or 2 shaves on it.
