Thread: Red Imp Straight Razor 133

Great start and great news!

I have a Mo, and I have migrated to square points as for me they are more effective.
So this is a great razor for what you are doing.

The Adams Apple tricks:

You can dramatically flatten your Adams apple by swallowing hard and holding it.

Next, use your thumb and forefinger to tension and pull the area to one side at a time.

Short buffing strokes

You are off to a good start. We tell people "100 shaves" but it gets better every shave if you take your time.
As others have noted, keep the pressure and angle low and buffing strokes are your friend.

Also sometimes going 45degrees is good enough for ATG on the neck under the jaw line where hair grows back toward the ear. It's really hard to get ATG with a straight there when you have a beard line.

Thanks for the tips, gentlemen.
