Sometimes when I get in an area that I'm really focused on, I find myself choking up and sliding my grip up towards the head. I guess it's like choking up on a baseball bat. Hope to get rid of that nervous tick at some point.
I occasionally do that as well, not recently I don't think. Maybe certain razors with less weight or bite. I normally use two fingers and the thumb somewhere around the balance point of the razor.
Boar brushes, brass razors, and hard pucks ARE traditional wet shaving. Everything else is modern day fluff for the girly men.
