I haven't seen this discussed anywhere, so I thought I would get your opinions on it.

What about using a str8 to teach a new young shaver? I have a 13-year-old that is ready for his first lessons. I am concerned about the danger of a str8 in his hands, but then again, that is what our grandfathers learned on and they survived, plus, it would start him off on the right foot.

What do you guys think? Any experiences or thoughts?

Thanks,
