Alright boys, I did it! My first full 3 pass straight shave. NO BLOOD! Up until now I have taken it very slow, and at most I have done my first pass with my straight. I have been finishing up with my DE. Not tonight! With a ton of help from a great guy known here as LinacMan, and facetime, I pulled off the 3 pass shave. It's not perfect, but DFS for sure! Thanks so much to all of you and for all the information, and especially a big thank you to LinacMan! Without you all, my neck would have been a bloody stump!
