Thanked: 1Boker Edelweiss
Hello everyone! So I have what I think is a pretty common story. I am new to straight razor shaving and I saw a video on shavenations site of the Geo shaving with a Boker Edelweiss that he said was "shave ready" out of the box. All he did was strop it and shave. I thought this would be a good razor to start with because I wouldn't have to delve into honing right away. My problem is that I have shaved twice with it and I am not sure if it is me or the razor or both but in certain spots it pulls a bit on my face. Both times before I shaved I have stropped with linen 15 times and then with bridal leather 50 times. On my face it feels fine when I am going north to south but on my neck or accross the grain is pretty rough. I am guessing that it is because I don't really know what I am doing yet but I didn't know if anyone here had experience with Boker Edelweiss Straight Razors?
