Hi, i have been shaving with a straight (Dovo bq) for a couple of months an im still learning, but sometimes it takes long (most of the times: 3 passes+one touch up pass)to get a smooth shave so i decided to get a merkur 23 with merkur blades for the days when im in a hurry or for touch ups, can i expect a close shave with this setup? And weirdly, im more scared of cutting myself with a de than a straight! And im expecting to get a Hartsteel for christmas, so the DE is really just for fun untill then ;-)))

Thanks
Mike
