Who? Me? Or the bloke above you there? I'm in Australia, so count me out of the Cincinatti get together! Too far to swim! :) As for my CT shaves, I would say they couldn't get any better, but I think there's always room for improvement :).

No not you, the bloke above me.
But thanks again for your help, got about 50% of my face smooth now with second shave. I'm sure this is technique issue. Razor is real sharp, cut lots of small nicks but no deep ones.
Also learned that pre-oil caused razor to drag more, much smoother with just shave cream.

Pre oil is a personal issue, it does not work for me and i never recommend it. i want to be sure that my hands will remain slip free throughout my shave and when i tried oil i had more issues with stretching so i quickly gave it up. YMMV

enjoy,
jim
