Not a “real” straight, I know, but the current Mrs 998 brought this thing home for me, courtesy of a colleague who had bought an Amazon surplus crate thingy which had about 5 of them in it and so she was giving them away…
Anyway, first ever self administered “straight” shave today. Went exceedingly well, in that I didn’t cut myself.
Not the closest, still working out the best angles and how to hold the sodding thing properly, but perfectly acceptable.
Given that this place is Enablement Central, I expect that a “proper” straight, strop and stones will be in the den sooner rather than later…

Missed using an SR and today's choice of this hefty razor with a refreshed Arkansas edge was perfect to mow down a 3 days growth for a bbs-dfs finish...
