I shave with a straight razor on weekends. For fun. As a treat. I've blogged about it.
I went to one of them fancy barbers that still do the hot towels and whatnot and shave you with a straight razor. I am an amateur. I wanted to know how it felt when a professional does it.
MUCH faster. And less grabby. His strokes were much smoother than mine. Sure of themselves.
I asked him what the most realistic representation of a straight razor shave he saw in a movie. Right away he said Peter Pan. Smee shaves Hook. He has the grip right, the strokes, and even does the backhand right, he said.
