Thread: at least my face is safe....

Nothing weird or surprising...

Sometimes we are just simply amazed at how *really* sharp our shaving implements are and why we treat them with utmost care and respect!

Today, half way through my first pass, left hand came up to check smoothness, right hand going down to rinse razor - a meeting in the middle. Left me with a nice little cut across first and second fingers.

I more or less left it as a 1 pass effort. I haven't nicked my self for days either!

Arse.

Sounds like me Red.

I know myself being a bit clumsy, and working with a mirror, thus mirrored movements while also finding the right position for hands and razor while trying to keep my glasses on while shaving, it's a challenge.

And of course I've got these massive big black plastic buddyholly-ish frames, so some initial ideas for handpositions didn't work too well.

Yesterday there was my razor and my thumb...cut like butter. From now on, i clean my razor with both eyes on the blade. lol

Couple days ago felt a slight sting on index finger. Where that cut came from while shaving I don't know.
Did't bleed till I decided to open it up. Thought it was a nick from the feeling, but no it was CUT.

I did something almost exactly the same with a cordless drill and my thumb.

I was putting self drilling screws in some pallet racks.
The phillips bit popped out and went right into my nailbed.
A few weeks later, JUST AFTER the scab went away, I do it again, with far worse results.
