Thread: Scarface?

Swords for two and coffee for one...I'll ask the razor how the coffee tasted!
You'll have to tell the missus she's to use another room if she plans on undressing in future .

I seem to keep cutting the same place with the same razor just about every time I use it. The place is on my cheek and the cut makes me look like a G.I.Joe.

yep pays to stay on the ball , I cant speak got a few good one's meself but as said above she'll be right mate !

On the upside, it looks like you are getting some decent shaves at least, going by the closeups.

Buy some vitamin E and brub it on the scar...It will dissapear quicker....Old school remedy from my more rowdy days.

A knife fight in prison? I know an even more impressive story: Yeah, I cut myself shaving. Straight razors cut deep".

I took a nice chunk out of my left jaw line two Friday’s ago with a freshly honed square/spike point. It was so sharp I hardly felt it cut. I’m on so many blood thinners for health reasons that sometimes the styptic pencil is not enough to stop the bleeding. I kept a little Neosporin “Neo To Go!” ® spray container on it to help heal. There is still a small scar, but nothing compared to the chunk it was.

That’ll teach me to try new angles with a soap not used before, and a freshly honed blade.

Or an initiate in a German University Dueling fraternity!

Looks like the work of a spike-point. They cut, then dig, then cut. Line-Hole-Line

I've got a 4" scar on my side just above my waist. I used to occasionally get asked how I got it and I found that it was easier to lie and say it was from a tree limb in the woods, since the truth was, there was this sheep...



Yup, I was laying on top of a sheep and she kicked me...



OK, if anyone wants to believe me, I was trimming the hooves of a sheep and one of the hooves I had already trimmed turned out to have ended up in a pretty sharp point. While I was working on one of the other hooves she kicked at my side and gave me a pretty good slice. It hurt but I didn't realize how bad it was till I finished up the last foot and stood up to let her go. The guy I was working with looked at me and acted like he was about to pass out. It turned out that I already had blood soaking the side of my jeans all the way to my boots. The hoof was sharp enough that it cut quite deeply and left a pretty good scar.

I considered a knife fight explanation for the scar, but that would lead to further elaboration of a lie and I didn't want to do that, so I usually stuck with the tree limb story. Scar stories usually involved being disrobed with equally disrobed young women, and somehow, I just didn't want to bring my history with sheep into the conversation!
