Thread: what age did you start shaving with a straight?

I started around the age of 17 / 18, ever since I started growing a beard I hated the feel of a non BBS face; I was looking into buying e DE razor when my dad told me "that's not a real razor, my granddad used a real razor". So I went to my grandparents place and ended up with 2 straight razors, a strop and a hone. Good times, been shaving pretty much daily with a straight for 5 years now. Great times, I could never use anything other than a straight and the occasional DE.
