When my hands area bit damn, the blade relatively small and the surfaces that I'm holding smooth, I am more apt to cut myself and have less control in critical areas. I am likely going to sell my beloved Torrey 4/8 for this reason alone and replace it with a unit with jimps.
PS I know I could cut it myself with a triangle razor, but that's another effort for another time.
