Hello,

I have been shaving with a DE razor for a few months and have decided to try a straight razor. Just ordered a Dovo #1226850 'Palisander' 6/8", Herold #155Ri Strop and Herold Linen-Only Strop along with pastes. I have been having a lot of trouble with irritation, especially with multiblade razors, but also with the DE blades. My friend said my problems will be solved with a straight razor. I hope he is right. Anyway, look forward to interacting with all of you on this board.

Thomas
