not really - but I DID cut myself for the first time today ten shaves in and no cuts til now - I was feeling confident and said to myself - be more cautious, and I slowed down and followed the basics of stretching the skin, watching angles and keeping a good lather, but...

I was trying to go XTG on my lower right jaw/ cheek and the lather was a bit dry and my angle was off and......

I am now the proud owner of a 1/4 long cut in my face.

AND I nicked my strop - twice !!! I have the SRD 'basic' 2" latigo and attach it to a bathroom shelf - that is not attached to the wall - and when the stop was under tension and I was stropping, the shelf slipped forward. Nick #1. I pushed it back, and tried to finish and....it moved again. Nick #2.

Both are on the edge and are small flaps - figure I'll just trim them off and sand them smooth..

*sigh*
