Been following a four pass shave noted over at Badger and Blade and it seems to be working quite well with a double edge. I really want to try it with the straight but don't know how I will fair with the across passes. They really need to be good for the shave to turn out well. What kind of luck do you presume I will have with a freshly honed razor. I am going to give it a go with a 7/8 w&b when I get it back. I imagine If I can manage all of the strokes that this would be the best shave I have had.
