Well I too ventured out this morning on my first trials with the straight razor, sure wish Dad was still alive to show me the ropes. I bought a Dovo special, readied by Lynn. Got most of the fixins, a mug and soap, a brush, strop and a hone. Used it just as received as it was already prepped by Lynn, so no stropping beforehand. Tried to shave this morning after reading lots for the past week or so. I survived with one small nick, but what a lousey shave. Had to finish things up with the Mach III. Somewhat disappointing, but I'll stay with it and learn this right. Not enough pressure on my part I think, and bad angles. Overly cautious, but I'll get it eventually.
