I have been shaving with a straight razor every day for about three and a half years. I touch up and hone my own razors regularly so they are always in good shape. My problem is the same problem a lot of people seem to have. That is, the whiskers to the sides of my Adam's apple grow outward and I can never seem to get a close shave on that part of my face. It is better with a DE but I prefer my straights overall. Am I missing some secret stroke that will solve my problems? Thanks in advance.
