You know you may have a point there about the temptation to press the blade. I used the Dorko 3/8 that I honed Friday night. I really got it right for a change it just slid over my face wacking off wiskers with ease. I did nick myself in the beginning (not big just a touch) maybe the pressure temptation. Hummm
