    Thanks guys!If I limit it to a 2 pass shave its going to look like I have not shaved, but will give that a go. I may have over exaggerated the hot water time but use it as thats what everyone suggests, will try less tomorrow and abit of cold water too. My skin is super sensitive, with very suborn stubble from the Greek side of my family! I have some Derby blades that I have yet to try so they will be next.

    Light pressure and correct angle are everything with a safety razor and as others have said, try stretching and if you have an adjustable razor step it up one click more aggressive. Also as others have said your pre shave prep might be overly aggressive, try wash and rinse with hot water and a hot towel for a minute or so.
