    I bought my straight razor on our honeymoon in a hill town in Tuscany. Although this was three years ago, I don't feel like I have my strop skills on lock. Pointers are welcome.

    The guy that used to give me tattoos would shave the area with a straight razor before putting on the stencil. It doesn't seem like a big deal when it's your arm, but getting my neck, chest (nipples!), lower belly (pubes!), and armpit shaved with a straight razor was fucking chilling. Not to mention the dude was the scariest fucking guy I've ever seen. Pure.Evil. When he shaved my neck, he put a brand new blade in the razor, held it up, leaned in real close and whispered, "Now, you're gonna wanna hold reeeeal still."

    Never even a nick. Perhaps 30 years in prison is good for something?

    Hell sometimes I use the box cutter at work if I miss a spot.

    Not trying to blow up anyone's ego or anything, but seriously...
