Just a quick link to a video I stumble upon of a street barber in the Banks of Ganges. That's a quick shave with no lather.

Amazing. This guy should go to work at Trumpers! And wonder if we can get his secrets for B&B. Definitely the razor honing technique!
Too bad I cannot do that!It looks like he is using disposable blades razor... so no honing. When will I be able to shave like this with my new Feather RG? I would still use the lather though...
Wow. Nice video thanks for sharing it.
That ranks up there with the shave by Willy as one of the all-time greats!
Man, he whisked that beard off like it'd been prepped with Nair.
Great video. Thanks for sharing 
That vid makes me really consider trying some form of shavette....
THAT GUY...
has got the touch!!!
The razor was hardly even touching the skin. he had such a light touch that he never scraped, just cut the hair and left the skin alone!!!
Hmmm, maybe a shavette would be cool...
Lather may just screw him up.

Someday my straight shaves will be that smooth 
I wonder if the substance splashed on the guys beard (can see it running onto his body) has an oil type lubricant of some kind? That video puts a number of things into perspective...wow!
Very skilful!
Holy crap! That was seriously one of the most impressive shaving related things I've ever seen.
Very impressive display of skill. I'm not one to dry shave but apparently you can get smooth (and hopefully) irritation free results
+2!
I've been trying to find that video again lately, but I can't seem to. Does anyone have a link?
+1. That video is awesome. The shave looks downright comfortable.
wow
