So I have been on here for a little over a month, and researching this for even longer and I finally shaved with a DE razor for the first time. My wife was not ready to give up my beard so I did a neck shave only
Razor: Vikings Blade Emperor on setting 3
Blade: Gilette Permasharp
Cream:TOBS Jermyn St
This was a great shave, not sure if it was just beginners luck or I set my self up for success with all the research I did, but it went smooth with no nicks or weepers and barely any irritation. The alum block after block revealed less irritation than any of my disposable shaves. Really happy with the switch.
