Well I got through the first 2 shave pretty well. Just one tiny cut on right side of face that didn't even bleed. Now I have only done 1/2 of right side of face down to jaw line so far. Not the greatest shave yet, but passible, then finished off with my Cobra Classic injector razor. One thing I noticed is I do not put enough water in my lather for straight, something else to work on.
