But Why?????

If thats your answer it is good enough for me.

You got any analogy's about fat girls you wanna share?:D

When you used the Gillette's did you go against the grain? And do you go against the grain with the straight?

Then again you and Agamamnon may both be having technique and/or sharpness issues.

I doubt that it's either of those two issues for me. Although I've pretty much done all my own honing I don't have trouble achieving BBS results with little or no irritation. Within twenty four hours, however, I'm feeling stubbly even though I don't look scruffy. The skin itself under the stubble still feels smooth thanks to the exfoliating action of the razor, though.

With the Crap 3 Turdbo and the DE I do go against but not with the straight with that I go across.
