    WARNING WARNING!!! - The CJB shavettes come shipped from eBay with a BLADE installed. I just learned this at the expense of badly cutting two fingers when I tried to pull it from the packing.....

    Cut me almost to the bone on my left index finger with an almost 1" cut and caught my middle finger a nice clip too at about 1/4 inch but not so deep. If I was in USA I would sue their asses off.....

    Off to the docs now to see if it needs a stitch.

    Super glue and duct tape. The manly alternative to stitches. :happy088:.
    Oh, we still need pics of your battle wound.

    Four stitches index finger and steri-strips on the middle finger. All dressed up now so only a pic. of the dressings. I will take a proper pic when the stitches come out in 14 days or sooner if I get the dressings changed.

    Yes that's the listing. I think he changed it after I emailed as I never noticed it before. Anyway a lesson learned. Be careful out there.

    Ouch! Those Feather straight blades are the absolute sharpest things on planet earth! I shaved my head with one for several months, and that sucker would occasionally bite, even with maximum care and concentration. I can't imagine a surprise gash from one!

    They prolly did change it. Seems kinda silly to preload a blade.

    Razors are like guns. They should be handled as if they were loaded.

    That listing was last revised March 12. I'm afraid you cannot blame the seller for this injury.
