    Default I did something stupid

    While trying to get a blade to fit correctly into my autostrop I slipped a d cut off the tip of my finger. not too much didnt hit bone or anything but lots of blood. Its hard to type with just a left hand so please excuse errors. So basically i will be growing a beard for a bit as there is noway I can use my right hand or will let my left anywhere near a razor.

    Careful bro!

    I still haven't tried one so heal up and give it a go again. I'm waiting to hear about the perfect shave from that monster.
    It's just Sharpening, right?

    Or the tradesman's bandage: paper towel and electrical tape. Duct tape works well too but it will adhere to your skin if it's left on very long.

    I did that with a kitchen mandolin slicing cucumbers several years ago. I still get twinges at the end of the finger when I think about it — like right now! It must sting - there are a lot of nerve endings there.
