    Other than that, it's perhaps your angle. I found it tough to get right on the jaw at first and still do at times.

    Keep trying. You will have a ah-ha moment or two as you unlock the clues.
    you are right my left hand was the worst problem i wiped the mirror with a towel then left it in that hand still too used to a DE i guess

    No one said a wedge is better just that it might be better for you if you have a stiff beard tho there are the odd full hollow stamped for tough beards eg the Fili EPBD

    They're different. I don't like big wedge blades, Prefer hollows or 1/4 hollow...

    My stiff stubble seems to like the razorock preshave/shave gel right after rinsing with hot water, rub it in until it just starts to foam then work up your cream/soap; gets really slick, and doesn't dry out the lather like others I've tried, but to each his own.
