    Was this your first shave? If so it might have been more you than you think. A lot of burn comes from using to much pressure when you shave. Did you order your razor as shave ready from Classic? On a second note I think all of classics razors are presharpened.

    You can order a presharpend razor or hand honed razor, from classic shaving. If you got the hand honed blade you should be good to go. Use very little pressure, expirement with angles, and do a good beard prep. Did you strop it first? Bad stroping can easily kill an edge.
    Most new people have the same issue you are having. No offence but I am assuming you are new to this because people with even a weeks worth of experience can tell the difference between a dull and sharp razor.
    If you recieved a presharpend razor contact classic shaving, I'm sure they would be able to help you out, and hand hone it for you.
    welcome and enjoy.
