    In the straight razor pamphlet that LuckyCynic posted they recommend only doing WTG passes. So I tried that and I wasn't satisfied with the results. I don't do ATG in every area because of irritation issues. I use it on the second pass where I can and use the XTG or thereabouts where ATG doesn't work well for me. I usually have to pay more attention, i.e. more strokes, on either side of my windpipe and on the knob of my chin. Those are my toughest spots.

    As far as bbs, if I get it in my routine two passes that is fine but if not I don't do another because it isn't worth the irritation that I will get with a third pass.

    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    I don't tend to do very many ATG passess. I truly enjoy the shave that I get with two seperate WTG passes (one of them is a modified XTG pass)


    For me I get a bit more irritation with the ATG and save that for weekends.

    I get a far better shave with my straight and WTG than with any other method ever.
