Hi all!
I have an issue that I am hoping I can get some answers to. I switched to straights mainly because of the multiple ingrown hairs that I would get with a cartridge. After switching to straights the ingrown hairs have been extremely minimal. Maybe one or two a month.

Last week I got a "new to me" henkels 72 1/2 from ebay. It came bevel set, but not quite shave ready. After a good honing I tried it out and it felt quite nice. I noticed more razor burn then I get from my Robt. Claus. But didn't think much of it. After the first shave with the Henkel I had a couple of ingrown hairs on my neck, again I didn't think much of it as a one time instance. Left it for a few days for the ingrown hairs to get better before attacking again. 2nd and 3rd shave with it got even worse. I now have a patch (about a quarter of my neck) just littered with Ingrowns. I thought it might just be this razor. Use my claus this morning and no new ingrowns.

Could there be something up with my Henkel that could be causing it? I dont think it is technique, since I dont have an issue with my other razors. Any recommendations to fix this if it is the razor? Do I need to hone it a bit more? Take off some more steel?

Any help is greatly appreciated!
