Thread: Trip to the hospital

So first I would like to say thank you to Maestro Livi for how freaking sharp your new grind is.

So I got a new razor and this was the third time shaving with it.

All went well...great shave and all.........

When I was done I was cleaning the razor and drying it off when I slipped. Blood was every where. I went to the hospital and got two measly stitches and a tetanus shot. Fun!

Just thought I would share my 4 hour shaving experience. The doctor asked "How did you cut yourself so bad with a mach 3" I laughed!

Well I hope you will enjoy your shaving experiences for a long time..

good luck with your cut..

Wow! This serves as a reminder that a blade should always be treated with the utmost respect. hehe

Hope it heals up soon.

Sucks to hear about the cut, but thats damn funny right there!

When I first started with a straight the worst cuts I got were not on my face but on my fingers. You really need to be careful and know where your body parts are in relation to the razor at all times.

Yeah, been there, done that. I was drying one of my 5/8 razors and cut on my left middle finger near the tip, all the way to the bone. I used superglue with good results. My doctor friend told me I probably should have had at least 3 stitches. I wasn't in the mood to deal with the emergency room.

Way to go! Sounds like something I would do.

I have a Livi, They are great shavers, dangerously sharp. I have to say that the Livi is my Favorite. I was wondering if you got chastised by your significant other. I know mine would have said, "I knew you'd wind up cutting yourself!

Oh, man. Now you just dulled the blade.

Seriously, glad it turned out ok.
