Proper DE razor grip

[csogbk]

Read a thread last night about finding the balance point on your DE razor and using this point to hold the razor while shaving. I can't for the life of me seem to find the post again today. I wanted to thank the author, I got one of the best shaves of my life this morning simply by changing my grip to the method described in this post! Whoever you are, thank you!!

Balance Point Method

Utilizing this simple concept has improved my shaves a huge amount.

I find that placing my index finger at or around the center weighting point and then spanning my remaining fingers along the handle gives the best results. This is known as the Stubblefield method, BTW.

I've never given it much thought as I get excellent DE shaves the way I hold my razor. But I will check this out.
