So IMO, if you cant get a BBS with a DE as a straight then you just need more practice with whatever razor you're using other than a straight. And learning what blade works best for you.
Also, As Best for you could be leaning towards smoother and not as keen. Then it's your fault. LOL. The Feather Blade in a DE does wonders. It just doesn't last long IMO.
My 2 cents worth.
