    Red face I am on the fence now after the first DE shave.

    Hi, I just had my first DE shave (not exactly the first one, but this time, I
    got it right with Merkur 12C long handle open comb+Feather, with proper face preparations).

    Finally, I had that "buttery" feeling when the blade sliding through my skin.
    Everything sticking out just melted away.

    This has put me in a awkward position since I am not sure anymore I should
    even start to learn the straight razor if a DE can provide such a
    close shave with much less demand for skills. I have ordered a bunch of honing stones and
    strops and blades. Haha

    Any input would be welcome.
