    Being a noob, I didn't think I'd ever get one of those close shaves that I've heard about. But last weekend I stumbled across a ball end tech ( I think) gold with a thin handle. A non aggressive razor, paired it with a feather blade, and concentrated on my angles and pressure. Tonight I did my 5th shave with that combo (same blade). WTG, XTG and a touch up. BBS and no nicks or razor burn. I'm in heaven. Now I think I should use this combo at least for a few months to work on my technique and see if I can get these results consistently. I can't wait to shave tomorrow.
