With the PIFed razor from Rick, I ventured forth and shaved today. Hurt like hell! No blood, but seemed I guess to be more pulling hair out than shaving it off. Actually did reduce stubble quite a bit, but did a final DE pass just to clean things up. I know I have to work on my angle, but I keep thinking I have a dull blade- even tho it came shave ready and I strop it religiously.( Can you dull a blade by stropping incorrectly?) I guess I should be happy for a first try as I didn't cut myself at all!
