    Cool Things you have broken while Shaving

    So I thought this would be a great on going thread about stuff you have broken while straight razor shaving. Today while shaving I broke a wall clock. I'm kind of a tall guy and hit it with my elbow . Knocked it off the wall and watched it bounce off the counter top , break and then for good measure fell into my sink full of water. Lol.

    Please share what you guys have broken while shaving.

    I nearly broke my marriage when RAD was at its hardest, but other than that I have been very lucky.
    Nothing broken yet

    Just kidding about the marriage thing, but she did think I was good for a trip to the looney bin for a while

    I hear you, got a bit of that myself until I started looking at other items in some of the estate sales....some beautiful stuff, picked her up a few pieces of art nouveau and Victorian era jewelry, and she loved it.

    When she asked me to show her where I found the stuff, she was gobsmacked - now I can't get her off eBay!!

    One door stop.
    It was one that sits on top of the hinge pin.
    It was mounted to the middle hinge and a very convenient place to hang my strop. About 30 days worth of stropping and the stop broke in half.
    I have since mounted a heavy duty handle into the side of the bathroom cabinet.

    Pretty careful as shaving, but setting up for a SOTD pic, I have had some close calls!
