well...the "safety part" was designed so people could shave in an easier fashion without having the learning curve of shaving with a streight razor (notice I am talking about the safety part not the fact you can use disposable blades etc etc etc), but I have already passed that part as I used to shave with a streight before but stopped because I simply dont have the time to sharpen it every morning before work. I still use it on a lazy Sunday.
I was actually thinking it could be neat to use it this way for the second or third pass...but again wanted to see if it was "commo practice" before I did it. I do love a close shave!
