After a year of straight razor shaving

Straight razor shaving made me review my whole approach to wet shaving especially the importance of good pre shave prep.' Currently, after using soap or cream for initial passes I am enjoying the luxury of using shaving oil for my final pass, which, for me results in a closeness of shave better than that I ever achieved using DE razors
 
I have been shaving with a straight for 3 years. A couple of things I’ve learned: 1. Most of the time when I’ve blamed the razor for a poor shave, it turned out to be my technique; 2. The shaving soap/cream you use matters. I have discovered that even within offerings from one company, my straights like some soaps more than others.
