I know this forum is mostly for straight razors but I just started out with my first DE, and I don't think I have fully mastered it yet ..but is the shave radically different (closer)when you start with a straight ?
I am using a Parker 111w and happy with it but I have not really tried going against the grain with it ..would you guys just shave with the grain using DE?
I did try and go against the direction of the hair but it seem to Be catching so I stopped.
