    Default I'm new and my blades nick after first use

    Hi, I am brand new on here and need advice.

    I'm brand new to straight razors (been using DE razors). I ordered two new shave ready Dovo stainless razors and each blade got a small nick after the first use. They seem very small but I can definitely feel the nicks with the thumbnail. I've babied them, didn't hit them on anything. They were perfect before using them. What am I doing wrong? Stropping doesn't seem to help.

    I've read and researched stropping and shaving before starting this. I'm afraid I'm going to ruin any razor that I get my hands on. Thanks for any advice.

    Phil
