Thread: Comparing Water Stones and Strop Pastes

That helps--thanks. My beard grows the same way yours does. You're right about the angles; I just meant that they make it tough for me to find a position that lets me get all the corners and hollows without slicing myself.

I'd like to see that video if anyone knows where it is...

Thanks,
Josh

I find I get my closest neck shave with a 4/8 razor. I don't know why but when I use one on my neck BBS.

I think I am in the same boat when it comes to an angular face. It makes a sharp curve when I transition from my face to the underside of my chin, jaw etc. And when I lift up my chin and pull the skin on my neck it forms all kinds of hollows and valleys. It's hard to find flat surfaces fo put the razor and then it takes contortions to put it there.

Ofcourse there is overlap. Guys that don't use stones need to be able to remove metal too.

I use a sharp razor and go against the grain if I want a close shave on the neck. I usually just don't bother.
