Amazingly, I drew less blood than I do sometimes with a safety razor! For the parts that I still did not quite get very well, I just re-did with the safety razor. All in all, a great first straight razor shave. The first of many! It sure is great to have this forum full of experienced straight razor guys! Thanks!!
