Meh. So much sense of achievement and danger to be had with a straight razor.
Also, as a knife buff, shaving with a piece of solid steel as opposed to a factory produced, disposable blade, very much appeals to me.
Another apsect of it is that that razors are very lovely objects and eminently collectible. I now have three western straights and a Kamisori. Mmmm, stuff.....
