Who has shaved with a straight or a knife?

I am getting lazy, and am down to using my straights on the weekends and DE the rest of the time. I've shaved with knives a couple of times, just to test the edge. It worked, but nowhere nearly as nice as a straight. AUS 8A worked well with a fairly thin edge, but the straights rule in this area.

My Dovo's are all around 14 deg inclusive. Love them.
 
I shave with SE, DE, and straights. I did sharpen up my Imperial EO Jack on my razors stones and shaved with it for a contest over on the Trad forum. Chosera 1000 to start them Norton 4000 and 8000 then strop on nylon and leather.
