And I think I'm getting the hang of it now, can comfortably do a 3 pass (wtg/xtg/atg) shave fairly quickly with no irritation or cuts, which ends up being better than I did with a DE. My stropping speed is getting up there, too, although I'm yet to nick my strop and I plan to keep it that way as I opted to splurge recently for a new Tony Miller strop (which is beautiful, by the way).
Just wanted to say thanks for the wealth of info available, certainly made it easy. Next up is learning to hone when my Norton stones arrive!
