    Its been just over a week shaving with the str8, and after a few nicks I decided on becoming a tad daring and went across and against the grain this morning. I used Somerset's pre shave oil and lathered up a storm with TOBS Sandalwood shaving cream ... BBS was the result with only the one war wound obtained as I went against the grain on my neck .. I'm getting there eventually! Name:  uploadfromtaptalk1403471102778.jpg

    Week 2 and a bit of shaving and my technique is constantly improving ... Each shave produces BBS results with 3 passes ... Razor is still plenty sharp ... I'm so glad that I crossed over to the dark side!

    Actually I take that back, I'm now getting a closer and smoother shave with the SR than what I ever did with the DE Slant Bar! .. I'm so glad that I've crossed to the dark side lol .. This forum and YouTube have proven to be invaluable.

    Glad you are enjoying it, but i bet your missus thinks all the shaving research etc is a bit odd
    Bread and water can so easily become tea and toast
