Thread: Less REALLY is more!

Hi all,

I've been using my straight for 5-6 weeks now and having read here about using light grip/pressure, and probably thinking that I was, until today when something clicked. I must say that I feel a bit of a fool for mistaking my previous "scraping" action for light pressure, but at least that is behind me now. With a lighter grip and a blade floating over the skin, three passes, no nicks and silky smooth finish I feel that I have definately turned a corner. Even the Alum block was a pleasant finish to the shave today.

Thanks and best wishes for 2011
Ryan
