I could see myself doing this too. I get pretty cocky with things, and the next thing you know I need a new arm. At any rate, I guess I am extremely lucky that the first day I ever held a straight razor I was able to shave my entire face with no hiccups. However, I am getting to a point where I am confident with my razor, and that is good. But, I know that I will eventually have something like this happen to me.

I guess what I am trying to say is, I empathize with you. Happy shaving!
