Well I got one of those As Seen on TV safety razors for Christmas, and began using it that night. I have been using it daily and I'm starting my fourth week of use. And I'm happy to say I think I have the hang of it. Tonight's shave was the first with no irritation and it's really smooth every where except the bottom 1.5 inches across my neck. I didn't want to make an against the grain pass there because of some irritation that's finally healing up.
Now when I say I think I have the hang of it, I do it with a lot of humbleness. I'm no where near the point where I trust myself to make long passes. I'm still keeping it under a couple of inches per pass. But for my face to be this smooth and zero nicks as well as not feeling it burn when I put on after shave is a big accomplishment for me.

), and see no reason to change. I have better angle control that way. (and it takes longer... Yay!).
