Thread: aww !#?**#!!

So this morning, while having my best straight shave yet I hit the blade of my Wapi on the faucet. Nicked it real good. Mad doesn't quite explain it.

Ouch, that sucks.

I try not to go near the sink while shaving. I have a small towel on shoulder or edge of sink to clean lather from razor. Then I only have to miss the faucet once while cleaning when finished shaving.

you learned quite cheaply i must say.

I hate it when that happens...

Do you think it is still reparable?

I've dinged a couple of my razors just a tiny bit and I got one razor with a couple of minor chips missing and they all honed out pretty good..

Good luck..

been there, done that. good excuse to buy a hone.

honestly, i have read quite a few stories where as new shavers we did that with their 1st good razor. sucks waiting to get that thing back.

going on a few years now and have not done that again though.

Did the same on my first razor, a Wapi.

Like anyone here needs an excuse to buy more items..

That's what I was thinking too.

That I learned cheaply is definitely true. 60 dollar razor, cost me about 10 bucks to have it shipped to kenrup and back to me thanks to his 90 day hone warranty. Awesome service. I absolutely learned how delicate these blades are and that carelesness will not answer. You really gotta be on your Ps and Qs as the saying goes.
