I started out with both round and square points. It was inexperience that sent me to here on the S R Place for guidance and after reading and talking to the more experienced (Old Fat men with ear lobes that grow) I've learned to use all points and sizes. Point is don't give up on any of the points out there. they all have there uses. I use my square points for trimming and the others when I just want a good shave with out using my glasses. enjoy the ride.
