Why was it your first straight razor?
How well did it work for you?
Did you hone it yourself or did you send it to a pro?
Did you transition from DE shaving or jump right to straights?
Did you ever cut yourself or do you worry about cutting yourself?
If you had it to do over again what would be different?
Anything else you think beginners should or would want to know?
