I just finished no. 2. Still learning my experience: really decreased the angle from the first time and it improved both the shave and lessened somewhat the burn. However, there were this time a few nicks. I noticed that I'm still having a little trouble with the non-pressure method. And counter intuitively less pressure makes for an easier shave. But it appears somethng that will come natural after experience. Unlike the first time I did not finish up with a de but did a third pass. Where it was close it was very, very close. The places I'm not as close are a little along the jaw line that I believe I can cover with experience. Again I'm not sure what to expect when I switch from the present shavette to a true straight. So far I can live with it, but to date it is not as close as a de or as comfortable. Two steps forward, one step backward.
