Week 3 with straight razor
Well,
After 3 weeks and a getting a good hone on my razor, I have figure out why i was having such trouble. Believe it or not I was not holding the blade with to little of angle moved my angle just a hair steeper and it cut thru the hair around my chin bulb(my biggest trouble area) with ease. I am not saying I have a perfect shave by any means but I have defiently made progress. I am getting a pretty good shave in about 20 minutes instead of an hour and the quality is far greater than when I started, I am happy enough with my shave I do not have to do a last pass with a safety razor. I am exstatic about that. A couple more weeks and I may throw those crappy things out all togather. At any rate I just wanted to thank all those who have encouraged me and given me advice, patience and time with experienced advice has really paid off.
