    Default Holding a Str8t

    Hello everyone. I am new to this forum and have a couple of questions for you experienced straight shavers. My best friend is buying a straight for me (i currently use a Gillette Tech DE) and I need to learn how to properly HOLD,GRIP, or POSITION the razor in my hand for shaving. I understand from reading this forum what the proper blade angle is but as to gripping the razor...I am clueless. Does anyone have any pics that might be of assistance to me? If so, please post. I greatly appreciate any help any of you can give. Respectfully, Mark

    Welcome to SRP, Mark,

    There is an article with about 20 "grips" in the shaving category of the Wiki.

    Regards,
    Robin

    welcome to srp, mark

    make sure your friend knows that there's a lot of junk razors out there completely unsuitable for shaving. getting on of them would be a pure waste of money.
