hello folks.
New to the forum & straight edge razor.
Have a nice vintage Solingen, prepped by a trusted source, shave ready and stropped.
First go, had a mediocre shave. Part shave, part scrape !.
I realise i've not yet committed to a 30% angle as it seems to be an angle for slicing off skin !. How to let go and trust that won't happen ?.
Managed not to draw blood or damage skin, so pleased with that at least !.
Thanks for any advice
