Hello all,

So I have been contemplating getting a shavette for when I travel. Are there any other straight shavers here who do this and can give input? What I am really wanting to know is if the convenience of a shavette (no stropping, not worrying about rust, etc.) is worth the difference in quality of shave (if there even is a difference).

Also, I have never used a shavette or double edge-ish blades (shaved only with gilette million blade cartridges until switching to straights). Can anyone recommend a shavette and blades that are forgiving to beginners? My technique with a straight is still not perfect.

Thanks.
