Scales snapped... almost took off a toe
My new razor that I got just over a week ago from straight razor designs had a major malfunction after my shave today (my second ever). I had just completed my shave, stropped the razor, and was just folding it to put it away and then *crack* the end of the scales just split and the razor dropped down onto my foot, luckily not on the sharp side... I either got a defective product, did something horribly wrong, or the universe doesn't want me shaving with a straight razor! I'm going to contact SRD but I have included a picture here in case anyone else has experienced this or is interested.
EDIT: Heard back from SRD and they're going to re-scale it for me. Have not figured out what the problem was, but possibly a combination of bad acrylic, pressure on the scales when stropping, and a stiff pivot.
