Thread: Cut of the Day

For cuts that won't stop bleeding with ice, styptic, etc, try fine ground black pepper. The cuts seem to heal better with less scarring, as well.

i dont know if they are or not .. i bet there expensive if so and from the videos ive saw it looks like u use it one your gonna be buying a new saw .. i think if i was a every day user of the saw i would purchase (if i had the cash )

I'd like to think that my method of using a normal saw works just as well if not better... the "don't stick your hand in the blade" method. LOL

I couldn't help but think about the old trick to stop a radiator leak when you said black pepper...looks like black pepper does more than just taste delicious.

Sad thing is I just received my very first straight razor in the mail yesterday and now I'll have to wait another week or so before I can start practicing. Who knows, I may have more photos to post sooner rather than later.

So, how you healing?
Thanks for posting that pic, I have quite a few high rpm sharp tools out in the garage, and pics like this bring me back to earth. I've been very lucky in that I've only had a few stitches and some glue needed to seal me back up, but the danger is very real.

Well damn, I wish I had seen this thread last night, because about 3 hours ago, I nicked myself on the jaw (tends to be where I get myself the most). Its not bad at all, the blade just hung a bit, but it bled something fierce initially. It had subsided before I was even finished with my shave, although the bloody soap on my face in the area made it look much worse than it was.

I will have to file this thread away for a rainy day when I can post pics of my own blood.

Well, I decided to post a picture anyway and maybe join the club. Here it is 3 hours old.

I think 'm in the wrong section 'cause this will never happen to me..lol
