Bloodletting

[Paper Plane]

I can slice my face with the best of them and weepers, spots, et al are not uncommon. However, my speciality is cutting my fingers. Changing a blade or even, just putting the razor back in its stand, will give me a great opportunity to reach for the toilet paper and plasters.

Am I alone in such hamfistedness or do other members suffer in similar fashion?

It happens every now and then. Most often with those highly polished aggressive razors that cover the blade tabs.

I try to save the cutting fingers act for AFTER my shave, at least then I have the satisfaction of leaving the bathroom with a smooth face.

Try Polsilvers Super Iridiums someday. They have great potential to slice the underside of fingertips just unwrapping them from wrappers.

At the risk of tempting fate I can't remember the last time I cut myself.

Better just go ahead and call the medics now......

Just once when I thought the blade was stuck to the bottom plate whilst washing the top cap. It wasn't, Ouch!!

I refuse to answer this question for fears that my honest answer will result in future harm to me and my appendages.

Have a wart on my neck just below my jaw. It gets a lot of nicks and cuts. Styptic pen is my friend....

My father had made a horizontal cut on the chin when he was young with an unguarded Gillette Tech.

This scar was still there for his rest of his life.

But Randy is such an experienced wet shaver that very rarely sees any blood.

Not had the misfortune always use a towel when tightening the razor or unloading it.

After DE shaving I notice the little nicks on my fingertips from careless blade handling. I am much more observant when using the straight razor.

It's just shaving man, geez!
