My first shave with a Feather dx razor
I have to say it was quite possibly the best shave I've ever had with a razor, str8 or otherwise & not one nick or cut let alone slice.It's a simple but marvelous piece of engineering solely designed to effortlessly remove hair from your face.In one respect it has let me know how unsharp my str8's are & how much farther I have to go to get a truly honed edge,I know these are machined blades but not even a tug or pull from the blade.I did on some occasion think my technique was not up to scratch as it's only been a year of using str8's & after using the feather i can concur that it's my honing skills that are holding me back.Since starting to use str8's they should carry a beware of becoming addicted warning as my bathroom cabinet far exceeds whats in my good ladies side & continues to grow, razors,soaps,oils,aftershaves old & new and whole host of other goodies.
Only wish I had started years ago as shaving is now a pleasure not a chore.
Keep up the good work SRP.

Well said morty1.
I have long supported the use of feather for most guys who want a great SR shave. The maintenance of a SR is not trivial and when you just want to get a great shave without the hassle the Feather is the way to go. It is really a full proof SR shave every time where the only variable is technique.

I really like the shaves I get from the feather razors. I don't have a straight that shaves the way the DX does, no matter how sharp it is, it's just different. Since I like using both I've made a compromise, straight for the face and feather for the head shave.

And do you prefer the DX, or is the RG just as good?
