Thanked: 3222Yes, I found that after I had gotten a good grip on how to shave with a straight razor using an aggressive DE was no big deal anymore. Using a straight razor taught me the importance of finding the right angle to use with any razor type and exactly what a light touch meant.
I do believe that the OC razor the OP used to shave with is an aggressive one. The design of the head may have been for the use of the early thicker style DE blades. Using the modern thin ones may also contribute to the aggressiveness of the razor. Those old style OC Gillette razors will shave right up there with a straight razor for me.
