So, did my first SR shave today. Since I have a beard, I started with my cheeks. Two passes... one WTG, and one XTG.

The good news is... I got just as good a shave my first time with a SR as I do when I shave with my usual DE. And while I found grip a little awkward, I didnt give myself any nicks, nor cuts, etc...

But the blade was very grabby like it was dull. I dont believe that is the case since I bought it (a Ralf Aust) from Lynn, so it must be my technique.

I tried from 30 to 10 degrees, but got the same result.

So, what am I doing wrong?

Also found that I cant wear my glasses when I do my checks as the blade is too long! Arrrg. Maybe a Dubl Duck Dwarf is in order.

Thanks!
