    Klaus, I don't know what happened to me, but I'm so scared to shave with a straight razor now. I'm soon going to have cataract surgery on my left eye, so perhaps after that, I'll go back into it, but not before.

    Jeff, buddy, I hope the surgery will be a success - you don't know what you're missing :D

    Taking out stitches is easy, like Jay said it pinches and tickles. Now putting them with in is an experience I hope never to have to repeat!

    I hope you heal up well Klaus. They tell me chicks dig scars.

    Howdy, Vesa!

    I've only been out of business for like three or four days until I took the bandages off. The finger's healing just fine but some movements, especially when grabbing stuff cause an extreme blast of pain. Thankfully it only lasts for a coupla seconds...

    haha, my turn. You think, even after reading about your troubles, I would've learned a lesson. Nope. I gotta learn the hard way. Not nearly as bad as your sounded, but probably could've used a few stitches. The pic doesn't show how deep it really went. I superglued it back together once I got the bleeding under control.

    Enjoy.....

    Oww Owww Owwww!!

    Yikes! I wanted to get in a couple of quick TSD threads before heading up to try my first str8 shave. Well, actually, I have to still get a strop for my str8 but yesterday I found NOS blades for a Durham Duplex I picked up. I was pretty nervous thinking about it this morning. Got the blade in place w/o nicking anything but it was making me nervous.

    Now!!! Yikes! I think I will not only make sure the styptic is handy - but maybe a huge cloth and a big syringe of superglue!! Oww! When I look at the perty blades it all looks so romantic and fun. Now that I see the bloody bits, owww! (I will be brave and suck it up.....)
