Thread: Just honed

A couple of thoughts.
I would not write the edge of right away based on your first shave with a straight razor, even though you have used a shavette, they are not quite the same as far as technique goes.
Any chance you messed up the edge stropping?
I would try a little more with a very low angle, almost touching the skin with the spine. The rest of wet shaving experience that you have pretty much crosses over.
Looking for an experienced member near by to help you get it dialed in, either in technique, blade assessment and honing would be a premium option.
