Thread: Fix those loose pivot pins! Stitches.

After much experimentation and large sums of money spent, I found my preferences. I like hollow ground razors 5/8 to 7/8. I have lots of variety though. I was looking to change it up and found a neat 6/8 wb wedge that I havent used in a while. It is a great shaver, but the pivot pin is a little loose. It's a heavy razor. The results ended in some stitches.

Sorry to see

Yikes, that looks awful! I hope it's just superficial damage.

Tack

I'm still trying to identify the body part....If that is your face you took a hell of a hit.

You are correct. It is my right hand. The cut goes around my hand by my pinky.

To be honest, I don't even remember. I was looking in the mirror after my first pass. The loose pivot pin caused the razor to close. I'm left handed and I only shave with my left hand. This blade is a heavy in proportion to its size. If it would have been a hollow ground razor, the cut would have been superficial.
