I shave with both a straight and a double-edge. There's very little learning curve for a DE and I can damn near guarantee that you won't want to shave with anything else once you get used to it. OTOH, shaving with a straight takes both practice and patience; it's not for everyone.
Badger & Blade is a great resource, by the way, been a member there since 2007. If you're in any way interested in shaving with a straight razor, absolutely read the tutorials and do your research first; don't just buy some shit razor off eBay and think it's going to give you a great shave. There's a great deal more involved, but that's one reason I enjoy it so. The restoration (if necessary), honing, stropping and subsequent shave are almost Zen-like once you truly get the feel for it.
Let's not even talk about the myriad wonderful shaving soaps, creams, aftershaves, etc. that are part of the game, as well. You'll never go back to your shitty foam in a can ever again once you've tried them.
