Every time I have a new straight, we need to get acquainted, it's sort of like a peace agreement. "You don't make me bleed ok?"
I've now grown so accustomed to straight shaving, that I'd probably have a hard time if I picked up a DE tomorrow.
I did consider it a few times this week to be quicker, but then I just go for a straight I know and I get a DFS just as quick as with a DE.
(and I feel I'm less likely to nick myself with a straight I know, than a DE) I don't ever use an unknown straight when in a rush.
So keep going guys, I think my peak from when I felt more comfortable with a straight than a DE,came probably around 2 months in, maybe a bit more.
You won't know you've reached that point, until you're way past it, and think about picking up a DE, and you end up going for a straight anyway.
That's the point where you can say "I'm more comfortable with a straight than with a DE"
Good luck, and keep at it!

For those that want to get into this game, beware, it's highly addictive, and don't buy your first straight of eBay.
