It's not a long or a deep cut, but this a.m., I did get a full fledged cut and nothing I could call a nick. I knew exactly why the very second that it happened. I had a piece of hard candy in my mouth and at the time, it was on the side of the cheek I was shaving. Nice smooth downward stroke, then it hit the bump and viola, instant blood. Note to self: NO more candy while shaving. Just thought I would share the experience.
