My Iwasaki razor arrived yesterday. No I didn't immediately try and shave and cut my throat. I was inspecting the razor. Mighty fine workmanship. When I was rewrapping it I nicked the back corner of the blade with the tip of my thumb. Thought I just pin pricked it, but after i got it to stop bleeding I could see it was a nasty little gash. Not deep and really clean. I guess he was just introducing himself and telling me to make sure I treat him with respect. I will. Now waiting for the rest of my stuff to arrive. Then I'll be ready to cut my throat. NOT!
