Picked my straight up for a shave last night After 7 months not using my Straight, by the way i never was proficient, I just grow a beard for winter and hadn't picked it up yet this shave season. Anyways, I had a couple days growth, stropped my blade, lathered up with stirling spice and got to work. My blade seamed to skip and be rough on the beard. Not enjoyable at all. After one pass I picked up the Merkur progress and finished it off. Do I need to just work on my technique or is it worth sending the blade off for a hone? Angle I thought was good, skin was stretched and wasn't using pressure. An extra days growth shouldn't of caused this cruddy feeling right?
