That's how you twist a poll, statistically it says everybody use them.

There should be an answer "what is a styptic pen?" i.e. I don't own one... lol

I was in a hurry this morning. More than normal. Not a good shave and I had a minor nick on my neck. I grabbed the styptic and the tube was glued/dried shut. Worked it open finally and it stung like normal. I didn't wan't to dink around with that so grabbed the toilet paper. I had a problem with my aim without my glassed with the first one so tried again. No sting involved. After I got dressed I replaced it with another. I did remember my biggest drawback with toilet paper and removed it in my truck when I arrived at work!

My vote goes for no Styptic just toilet paper.

i think ive only had 2 cuts and one stab ...lol.. o and a little nick ... knock on wood

They are nice to have on hand just in case cuase they make nicks disappear quicker than anything else. Nothing worse than walkin around with a noticeble nick on yer mug.

I think they're one of those thing you don't want to admit you've had to use But yes, I do use mine from time to time.

I hate it when they get all stubbly textured though. Like rubbing a stinging barbed porcupine quill into a wound ha ha.

I don't even own one.
