I suppose it could work but you would need a jig of some sort to get a consistent angle, as you said , is it worth it?. Palm stropping a new blade can`t hurt, I can get good shaves from the start with SE blades after half a dozen laps each way. I also got tip re rough as guts Personna injector blades, ie, giving a new blade 1 super soft pass with the end grain of a bit of balsa. I was ready to bin the injectors because of the blade issues but I swear I get more shaves per blade and they are as smooth as NOS or Chinese Schicks from shave 1. Pablo, I thought all straights, Carbon or Stainless, had to be stropped before and after shaving?
