I began this morning with a truly enjoyable shave with my DE.
Still on a holiday vibe here, but popped into my office to tidy up a few bits and pieces for next week, and waiting for me was a package from theinvisibledge comprising of a Dovo straight razor and strop. I decided before Christmas that I would learn how to shave with a straight.
The razor is very beautiful, comes shave ready, and I look forward to trying it out tomorrow morning.
I see myself using the straight initially at the weekends or other occasions when I really have proper time to invest in my shave - although I see some true masters can do it in the same time as I take to wetshave with a safety razor - in other words I am not abandoning ship on my DE by any means.
I will get some pictures of my new acquisition and set up and report back as regards how my first attempt goes tomorrow
