This poll was thrown up in straight razors. I was wondering what the response would be like here.
Either will do BBS. Might have said str8s in the past. Not sure I have gotten as close a shave with anything as with the Muhle R41 I have beeen using for weeks. Especially when using a Feather blade. Still, the best honed str8s i have ever used were remarkable shaving tools. Very able to produce BBS.

I'm almost with you.+2
I can't imagine getting a closer shave (or longer lasting) than with the Muhle R41...but I enjoy shaving with straights more.
I agree... a shavette is not a straight... it's a single-bladed R41 without a guard.Annnndddd... didn't mean to trash the replaceable bladed versions - its just that the total zen isn't there with them (for me).
The only reason my DE is closer is because I suck at using my straight.
