Had my first Straight shave the other day.
a member here was cool enough to send me a shave ready gold dollar to get my feet wet. i received it and waited for the weekend to have at it.

I must say that the gold dollar was in fact, SHAVE READY!!!
possible gore warning:

all three of those cuts are from me being shaky and nervous and slightly moving the blade as i set it on my face, thus slicing myself. that was Friday night. Monday night i took to it again.

this time i only cut myself once and that was on my upper lip while trying to detail that hard area. i think im going to like this straight shaving thing. i seem to get a slightly closer shave with 1 pass than with my DE from 2 passes. I also have a begginers strop on the way from starshaving. hopefully that arrives soon.
