Good shave today – and it’s strange to see that my shaves with a straight are closer than those I get from an (admitedly very mild) DE razor.

Have a good evening.

It gets worse. When I try (i.e. 3-pass shave), I get a closer, more comfortable shave with a straight than with any DE or SE that I own. This includes mild razors like the Feather and mild-plate Blutt, and very aggressive razors like the MMOC.

I had an mild razor with a well-worn blade, which is probably not the winning condition for a close shave.
Do you think you lost proficiency on the DE side, or have straight shaves more potential?
