Thanks to everyone for all the input! I guess it's safe to say that beard density/thickness should not be a main factor when choosing a grind.

I did have a pretty good shave tonight - very close,...

Hmm..interesting. I might have to try both a bigger and smaller blade in quarter or half hollows.

Yeah, I usually have a shower before hand or at least use a hot towel. I also use both pre-shave oil and Proraso before each pass - works like a champ when I'm using my DEs.
I haven't tried what...

I apologize in advance for the slightly wordy post.

I've just begun using straights - have about 20 - 25 shaves under my belt (still using DEs mostly during the week as it is much quicker for me)....
