getting better. I just shaved with the Weck for the second time. No irritation this time. I think I was applying pressure last shave given the different geometry between the Weck and a DE safety razor. The shave is really smooth. I'm pleased with the results and will continue to use it to try to develop some technique. I'm still pretty clumsy with it below the jaw line but I decided that I like the ability it gives me to shave under my nose. This is always a difficult area with the DE, and I had the bad experience with the other shavette when I cut myself there. I now attribute this to the fact that the shape of that blade holder doesn't allow me to get close under the nose while maintaining a proper shave angle and to the fact that the 1/2 DE blades are much sharper than the shaper blade.
