You're most definitely right Alex. For some reason OCMM came easy to me but not DE feather blades ... Haha.

Good question, I decided to wait for after the holidays, but still pumped to do this!

Ok gents! Just shaved SE for the first time! Shave was like a dream, no worries, my ATT H2 taught me well! Loved it, no blood, where do you guys get these razors? Gotta ship this stuff back!

No rush.

Could not believe how easy and smooth shave was!

Outstanding, Paul! Congrats on your 1st SE shave! And, successful, too! Awesome!

Welcome to your next obsession in traditional wet shaving!

If you are like me your DE will start collecting dust.

Shave 2 is going to be today, we will find out if I had beginners luck, but I doubt it as the H2 has manned me up to any razor, my 34C is like a quick cart shave. When I first used H2, I was cocky as a "veteran" looked like a murder happened in my bathroom, styptic didn't even help, just a lot of toilet paper on the face, but I am stubborn and was back at it the next day with better results!

I had my first DE shave in maybe a month or so the other day. I won't be making that mistake again.

I go back and forth between DE and DE and save the straight for vacations and weekends. My go to SE is the MMOC.. Best shave as long as you don't get cocky. There's a reason it's nicknamed The Beast..

I'm getting sucked back in because of the Grudge matches in the DE section. Even my straights are getting lonely

Back to a question I had, where to buy these razors and blades? The ones Jay sent seem vintage, gotta get into this big time!

2nd shave just a repeat of yesterday, no probs at all and very close!

Paul, the razors are all vintage, but can be found pretty cheap on the bay.
