I received my first Straight razor yesterday from whippeddog, i didn't have Time yet to try it but i want to make shure i've got everything ready to strart. I already wet shave whit a DE safety razor and i enjoyed it, now i wont to make that step foward to Straight shaving. Since the age of 13 i started to shave and i always want to shave whit a Straight razor i guets at 46 it's now or never. I know that i will cut and nick myself but it's part of the learning process. When i start DE shaving it was the same thing but it's only been a month and i rarely cut and nick myself, i guest being a everyday shaver i learn fast. As soon i will do my first Straight shave i'll post my comments.
