    In my opinion, straights are more aesthetically pleasing than shavettes. Shaving with a custom or a vintage straight gives me a better emotional experience.

    You posted in the wrong thread my friend. That's a traditional straight razor.

    Congrats. I don't own one, but a Weck sextoblade has a great reputation. I wish you many years of enjoyable shaves with it.

    Just out of curiosity, how long did the guard stay on, or did you even bother with it?
