    Default Fresh honing and stretching the skin

    After using my new "ready to shave" Dovo Special approximately 8 times I sent if for honing and also purchased another razor from Straight Razor Design.
    I received my razors yesterday and had some time this afternoon to shave. I found there to be a huge difference between a freshly honed razor and the off the shelf factory "ready to shave" razor.
    So here is some advice from a New guy to other new guys: GET YOUR NEW RAZORS HONED PROPERLY!!!

    I am also learning that stretching your skin while shaving also makes a huge difference. I had a really great shave today and the warden (wife) ran her hand over my face and said "It feels like you don't have a beard."

    I had a couple of tiny nicks which I'm sure with practice and patience I'll avoid.
