So you have been shaving with your straight or DE for well over a year now... what's changed?

I got to say, for me quite a bit. Just to get started though, with respect to my shaving with a straight:


What hasn't changed:

- I still blame the equipment when I get a lousy shave
- My wife still thinks I am nuts


What has changed:

- I don't do three pass shaves as much as I used to
- I haven't destroyed a strop in some time


What about you? What are some of the things that really stand out that's changed for you?
