Hmmm, I'm not so sure.
Did the surgeon use a straight? :thinking:

I admire self sufficiency :roflmao
Remember the Boker from my SOTD yesterday that I said had an ever so slight tug? I'm convinced it was all my imagination. As I was taping the spine it slipped out of my hands and as it sliced the crap out of my left ring finger I didn't feel a tug at all.
I've heard other people report injuries from grabbing for falling razors and I've always been convinced that when I dropped one I'd be smart enough to let it fall. This was just a reflex and just before I commenced to bleed all over the counter in my shave cave, I thought to myself, "Gee now wasn't that just dumb as dirt?" I soldier on with a bandaid and a huge ball of toilet paper held onto the finger with electrical tape. I'm gonna OPS test the razor in a minute.
Ok, now that we have ascertained that you survived...how did the Boker make out or did you successfully "catch" it?
Last time I used my shavette i had such a great shave i think i got a bit cocky. Cut myself on the first pass whuch i rarely ever do. Doesn't look like much now but I had a heck of time getting it to stop bleeding. Reached for my clubman nick relief...nothing. Styptic ...nothing. put pressure on it with a piece of paper towel, left the towel on and finished the pass. Thing absorbed so much blood it fell off my face. Tried it again... same thing happened so I took the styptic and used it to put some serious pressure on it for a couple of minutes. That did the trick.
I was a bit gunshy but I put some triple antibiotic on it and did three more passes. No nicks or cuts and very little irritation.
There ya go! Back on the horse that threw ya! You may have to wear a mustache for a couple of weeks...
