I'm 3 shaves in with a straight razor. Lots of learning yet to do. I still don't feel 100% comfortable especially around my chin but I'm a work in progress.
I'm wondering what are the major differences between a kamisori straight and a traditional straight razor.
a few questions I have:
would I have to learn all over again how to use a kamisori if I can use my straight like a pro? (i'm not a pro yet)
Is the shave easier with a kamisori since you have a bigger handle for gripping?
I'm sure it is still necessary to strop and hone a kamisori so are these techniques different than stroping/honing a straight?
Statement: If you can shave with a straight you can shave with a kamisori. Fact or Fiction?
Thanks folks!
