    Default shaving a full beard.

    Shaved a full beard with a straight razor. Found out its a lot of work. Should have trimmed it down first.

    Heh, I'm quite the opposite.
    Nothing gives me more pleasure than plowing down whiskers that have been around for a bit.
    Just the other day I went at my mo'stache, what a delight!!

    Short, buffing strokes will mow it down regardless of lenght in my experience.

    Other than having to wipe the blade off more for me it is no different.
    It is just Whisker Whacking

    When shaving at skin level, how does the blade know what length of hair it is cutting?
