JL,
At this point, I still get my best complete shave with a DE. With the straight, I can get my cheeks as smooth as glass, but I still have a bit of difficulty with my neck. Part of this is angle, and part of this is I am learning to use a straight with my left hand. Since day one, I have shaved with a straight using only my right hand. Now that I am comfortable with the razors, I want to use them properly.
