The ¨problem¨ that I am having is that the straight razor is not shaving as well as the Shavette. Of course my technique is off so I was asking if with the proper technique I can expect the same shaving ¨quality¨ as with the shavette.

Should I put more pressure in the shave. Change the angle (I use the Dove Best Quality 6/8)?

Thanks for the feed back, I appreciate it.
