Evening all. Along while since my last post but thought I would check in again and update you on where I am at.
I have used various blades and handles but have settled with a two murkers one being a slant and shark blades which work very well for me.
I am now moving into straight edge. Purchased a shave ready blade and paddle strop from a seller who I was talking to for days before I settled on my purchase. The seller gave some solid advice on blade and strop and stropping technique so all good.
I shall be venturing into my first straight edge shave in a few days so it's back to the learning curve for me with something new. I am hoping not to cut and nick myself too much but as a realistic person I expect one or two.
I will as always post here on progress and I am always open to advice from the BB forums.
One the best things I did switching to DE from multi blade plastic so I hope the straight edge (over time) is just as an enjoyable experience.
Stay safe and feel free to offer up advice.
