Thread: Razor-shy after cut . . .

As a veterinarian, I whole-heartedly agree with your observation - cats indeed are more dangerous than straight razors. I've got the scars to prove it

Cats??!! Oh yes, very tricky little critters!! I always tell people who ask about my Straight Razor scars[I've got about 4 REALLY GOOD ONES] to NEVER play truth or dare with an Osalot[spelling}.

I almost always cut my earlobe when I get rushed in the morning (damn Navy life). But yesterday I cut my thumb from being careless. I will set the razor down before I grab my badger brush. I just need to repeat that mantra.

as long as you know the error was because you were sidetracked and not paying attention, just be sure to pay attention next time. after you learn your lesson, you don't need to worry about it again.

It is very easy to get side tracked while shaving in extremely close proximity to ten other guys. But, the styptic pen is my friend.

I'm back to straight razors again, as of this morning. But was a little more careful this morning than I usually am. And very careful to keep the skin stretched -- a "bunch-up" was one of the causes of that neck cut.

Thanks to everyone, again . . .
