As bad luck would have it, my left hand caught it by the scale, my right slide over the edge along my thumb.
All of this at about 2:30am (no, wasn't drinking), with the wifie in bed only about 12 feet away. I learned how to keep quite from yelling and throwing stuff as my thumb was split open. The meaty part of my thumb was sliced open, and I kept it under the fossit with the water running for about 10min till the bright red blood started to slow down from flowing out.
Took about 1 1/2 hours of me pinching my thumb back together over my head to stop the bleeding. I probably should have gone to the hospital, but I figure dumping half a bottle of rubbing alcohol on it, and using duct tape to keep it closed once the bleeding about stopped, that it was good enough.
I do have to say that I did save the razor.
