Thread: What part of the blade do you use most?

Toe on the sideburns, middle on the cheeks, heel on the tricky parts because it's less likely to snag or bounce, less leverage.

I find I only use the toe of the razor for my sideburn area, and in the tight spot around my adams apple. Otherwise I mostly use the middle of the blade.

I mostly use the front third, but whatever works really.

When I 1st started I was using the spine but now I use the edge - much better! :-)

Seriously: I work different part sof the blade for different parts of my face.

The first 2/3rds are probably used most, but the heel is critical for some areas - like coming up and around the chin. So I voted for all areas of the blade.

I voted for all areas. The first third (toe-ish) probably gets the most work, followed by the middle, with the heel bringing up third place. Depends on what areas I'm trying to hit with a particular grip.

Zamboni on the cheeks/most of the neck, Toe around the lips, Heel around the goatee/jawline

Upper part of the face (above the beard) I'm using either the toe 1/3 or the heel 1/3. About equally.
Below the beard I'm using the middle of the blade.

I use the front 1/3 or maybe even the toe the most. Was just thinking about this today!

I had to look up what a Zamboni is. It sounded like an Italian sausage and I had trouble visualising a technique that involved waving a sausage over your face.
