First shave with a straight razor Sunday night. I did everything that I have seen on line, but razor pulled like a bear. I think the guy that sharpened it probably didnt know what he was doing, and neither did I. I will keep trying though. I am sure that it will get better with practice. The big Geneva blade seemed sharp, but maybe I should have someone from the site hone it for me.

Its easier to blame the honer than to accept that I am just not good at this point.
