So does anyone else use a straight razor for their everyday morning ritual? If so, what razor(s) do you use? I've been shaving with a Dovo Special and a Dovo Perlex for about a month now, and I am really starting to get the hang of it. I just picked up a very nice vintage razor at a local flea market, a nice late 19th century razor made in Little Valley, NY. I'm looking forward to shaving with a straight at my next reenactment event I attend.

I recall the famous Lt Dennis Shank shaving himself with one. I do not recall anything about it, mostly worried of him killing himself with it.
