    I agree. This hobby has a multitude of drawbacks and shortcomings with RAD being an extremely infectious disease.

    Well if you go back to disposables you will need to watch out for the SRP black ops chopper that will try and catch you off guard.

    Actually, it is very interesting to go back to disposables/cartridges once or twice after you get the straight technique down (proficient). Granted, it was a few years ago now but I noticed that the resulting shave(s) was irritation-free, but it was not very close and I felt like I needed to shave again 5 or 6 hours later. Funny, since I remember those shaves being a lot closer in the old days....

    My point is that the skills we learn when using a straight (beard mapping, pre/post care, stretching etc) are very much transferrable to other forms of shaving as well - most successfully when using a DE as a SR alternative IMO.
