    I was waiting for someone to get it... I got "you're shaving again?" today. Stroping feels natural now, so thats my new question. Can you do that to much?
    My first 3 shaves have went great and getting more aggressive. Having a couple problems hitting some angles on my neck other than that I'm so hooked. I've never ran my hands up the sides of my face and felt no stubble. I told my sister-inlaw "Feel this" got a weird look when I grabbed her hand.

    I don't think you can strop too much, however, it does increase the odds of screwing up and rolling the edge. Let's say if you do over a hundred laps, then you're just playing with it!

    Aren’t you being a bit premature?
    Don’t we have to at least see a picture of the Sister-In-Law first?

    Everything is all messed up now. Hours in the bathroom, disappearing to Crabtree and Evelynn to buy a "brush". Throwing up a tasty pic of her sis on the web, we'll need a new sticky "Place needed for newbie to crash"!!

    LOVE the Bismark. That was what I wanted but saw so many recommendations for the Special as first SR. Do you know what the difference is between the two? Would'nt mind hearing "Allot".
    I'd like to try a heavy 5/8.
