    Just a papercut to my little toe, but a reminder to make sure that your hands are dry before after shave stropping.
    Maybe I should add shaving shoes to my routine.

    It's unfortunate that you suffered the minor injury, but think of the damage that blade might have suffered if you hadn't "saved" it.

    I had a friend who used to install window panes for a living. The first thing he taught his new helpers:

    "If you drop a sheet of glass, DO NOT try to catch it."

    My solution and one I strongly recommend is to have a throw rug by the sink. It feels good under your feet and if you drop the razor no harm.

    I get half dressed before I shave, PJ bottoms or whatever, footwear is always moccasins. I've come close to dropping a blade, knock on wood. If I did drop one, I sure wouldn't try to catch it!

    Heard a kid tried to catch a big sharpened sword that was falling over at the annual Blade Show one year

    You'd think ��

    But for some bizarre reason, instinct tells you to try ��

    Be glad you didn't ding the blade on your wedding band��

    Not from shaving, but from changing an auger drive belt on a snow blower.

    Left hand index finger, shattered the tip bone and some rows of stitches but hey, the auger sure works now!
    Go to see a nerve specialist surgeon next week as it cut pretty deep..
