Very helpful video there Mike. You bring up some very important issues that I know get missed. Most safety issues are like you said, common sense but common sense isn't so common these days.
Guys, especially you new guys, be smart, please think safety when shaving with a straight razor. Concentrate on what you are doing and pay close attention to where the razor is at all times. Straight razors can deliver many very enjoyable shaves but also deliver a ton of pain.
Here's hoping all new guys have many safe shaves on their straight razor journey........enjoy!
Interesting Thread,is like using icepicks,do not poke yourself in the eye.:)
You have some pretty good point there.
Yea, there are many ways to cut yourself unintentionally with a straight razor. Nobody needs to be startled by an unexpected intrusion into the bathroom while you are shaving. Especially when you are just beginning and nervous anyway. Just close and lock the bathroom door if you have to. It's natural to try and catch something you have dropped to save it from damage. Resist that urge when you drop your straight razor. This is where having some clothing on while shaving comes in handy too.
