I used to shave with straights on Saturdays, but I quit in October of 2024. I don't know if I will ever start up again. Maybe or maybe not.

Saturday is my Iwasaki Kamisori day after 10-12 months I just couldn’t get comfortable with SR’s but no issue now (after numerous “slices”) with a true Kami 👍

I had gotten pretty good with my straights. I am pretty sure I could pick it up again if I wanted. I did get a few cuts in the early days.
