A 20+ yr DE shavor's 2 cents
I identify with the posts by Disburden and Rajagra....there is something special about a straight and all that goes with it; and it really its not about the competition.
That being said, I would like to say I get as close a shave with the straight....but I'm not there yet. I am used to getting a really smooth shave from the DE because I can go ATG everywhere...upper lip even. I can do the same with the SR on cheeks and neck but ..gulp...not lip or below my mouth. Also, I use those notoriously sharp Feather blades in my DE. On the straight, I am frequently using self-honed blades and while I am getting better, I am no honemeister.
But no doubt, I prefer to SR shave!
Best to all, Jim
